Sony TV Red Light Blinks 6 Times

Sony TV red light blinks 6 times

If your Sony TV red light blinks 6 times, it usually indicates a specific issue with the TV. Here are some potential causes:

  • Power Supply Issue: This blinking could signal a problem with the power supply board. I’ve often encountered loose connections around the LED driver section on the power supply. It’s a good idea to inspect your power supply as a first step
  • Backlight Issues: Problems with the backlight can also trigger the 6-blinks error. This could be due to faulty LED diodes or an issue with the backlight circuit.

Conclusion

I do not recommend that inexperienced individuals attempt to replace the backlight in a Sony TV. This is because removing the screen is necessary, and mishandling this part could result in a cracked display or damage to COF ICs. Please do not attempt this repair unless you are willing to risk damaging your TV.

Replacing a power supply is a bit easier to deal with. If you have noticed a loose connection, simply order a Sony power supply from us to get your TV up and running again. Remember to get the correct part number off your circuit board to ensure compatibility.
