    Sony KDL-70R550A red led blinking 5 times, troubleshooting

    Hey mates! my tv keeps blinking 5 time and when I turn on it doesn't show anything on screen and it turns off after a few seconds.
    I am having the same issue as this guy: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=65126 and following his method,
    I have removed the right bottom ribbon cable and the tv starts but the picture showing but not very clear and good, I attached a pic.

    Can anyone point me to the next step I should take? thanks!

      show a picture of the "right bottom ribbon cable" so we know we are on the same page, can you feed it a signal to see what kind of picture you have?

          Hello thanks m8, I acted too fast and I removed the 5 tabs from the right side as stated here: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=53053, now the picture quality is better but still not good. see attachments.

          what do you think, did I f up'ed? or should I remove the left side now ?

          Thanks

              well hard to tell if it was a boo boo at this point, DO NOT remove the other side, or it will be ruined for good, need one whole side to drive it.

                  ok thanks, after fiddling around with the connectors it is now showing really good, not 100% but really good and watchable, just some minor imperfections.

                  thanks.

                          Sony kd-85x85j LED blinking red 6 times
                          by NolesFan
                          I know the 6 blinks are a backlighting issue, but when I pulled off the back cover and turn it on, the is a white flash from with the panel then I hear what sounds like a relay trip and the TV goes into the 6 blinking light code. Before I pull all the electronics off and checking the individual strips, there is a on the power board, a harness with 4 wires that run thru the panel, which are what I believe are the LED lines, but Im not a tech so no clue. Wires read OUT 1 + & - and OUT 2 + & - My first inclination was to remove the power board and use my LED tester and go to each + &...

                          i downloaded firmware from sony and there is no .pkg fike.. after extracting it gives another file which contains multiple files like inf, payload.bin and 3, 4 other files. i just did that usb but did not worked. anyone knows anything how to do it..?

                          green amber blinking stops after while and then starts again. tv responds to remote control on off etc. before installing new tcon backlite was coming on without backlite...

                          Sony Bravia blinking red 7 times after lightening KDL-55DL-55EX720
                          by thesteve
                          Hi. This is my second post. So far no signs of life on this message board.

                          I have a Sony KDL-55EX720 that works beautifully. But after an incident involving lightening, the set will shut down after a minute or so and flash red 7 times.

                          I have a donor main board to use to swap parts if necessary. I tried swapping the board completely, but so far have had limited success updating the firmware which turns out is mandatory.

                          Before I try any risky surface mount soldering, I thought I'd ask for advice.

                          Thanks.

                          Steve
