Re: Sony Bravia KDL-65W850C Red blink 6 times

The tester arrived today, the verdict is clear.
On Out1 it reads 170v and lights up.
On Out3 it reads 300+v and does not light up.

Clearly a burnt LED on Out2.

Now, I've seen a few videos, looks like a lot of disassembly to get to them, I'll order the LED strips, hopefully this goes well, little nervous!

Any tips?

It looks like it's a major pain to get to the led strips, but not impossible!

The service manual doesn't see to cover those too much.

I'll look into it, i guess if you mention replacing them, I can find those easily?

The troubleshooting path had me check the BL_ERR signal and I have 3V so well above the written 1.9v threshold.

Then I verified the Out1 and Out2 voltage and that's where i'm stuck.
When I power on the...

Hi All!

Fresh new member here.
Did electronics back in college and it's been years since i've had to go down to the component level but i have a challenge now that i would love some help on.
I'll post a thread once i'm allowed, but i have a Sony TV that died and i think it could be repaired easily.
I don't want to break any rules by spewing it out here so i'll wait until i'm able to post in the proper area but if anyone is familiar with Sony Bravia TVs and their power supplies, maybe send me a...
