6 Red Blinking lights (left side darker) on Sony KD-49XE8396

[Watson306]

Hi,

I've got a Sony KD-49XE8396 TV that will switch on show the Sony logo then the Android logo and then switches off, and then blinks red 6 times.

I've read that this is the backlight, and during it showing the initial logos I can see that the left side is definitely darker.

I've also read that you can bypass the error to get it working but I'd prefer to fix it if at all possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance.

If you want to completely get rid of this error, then you need to completely replace the led backlight, its number is NLAW30451.

In your opinion does that sounds like what it is then?
I've read it could also be the LED driver board.
I've also now opened the back up and none of the boards appear to have any burnt areas.
