Sony KDS-60A2000 60" HDTV - Page 5 Questions & Answers
My sony rear projection has a green tint to it.
I han into this problem myself on my Hitachi Rear projection TV. The part that has gone bad is the "Light Engine", and is a common problem with rear projections. There are 3 mini LCD screens inside your TV. One Green/yellow, one blue and one red. When the heat builds up in the TV over time of usage, these screens will break...causing that color to "bleed" everwhere. My TV was under warranty when it happened, but the part itself would have cost upwards of $200-500 bucks and the labor is another $300-$500.
When the tech fixed my tv, he told me he would see me again within 2 years...and said I'd be better off getting a new TV. That is what the problem is. You can research "Light Engine" here on fixya, and you will find a TON of info on it...and a lot of people with the same problem.
Hope this helps ya.

This sounds like a power board problem. It is likely that capacitors on the board are failing so they can only store enough charge to properly supply DC current to the video board for a brief time. A shop will most likely suggest that you replace the power supply board entirely. If it were my TV I would remove the board and replace the bad capacitors for a few dollars myself. Depending on your experience with electronics and soldering you may want to do the same. Otherwise having a shop replace the board makes the most sense - the labor charges to repair the old one would not be worth it.

Blinking red light 3 times
A lot of these sets had a stupid problem---3 blinks usually means "the lamp door is not properly closed".
What happens here is heat from the lamp warps the door---it has on the back a peg of plastic that when it is installed engages a lever switch--protection so the set cannot be operated with the door off.
If you remove the door and look at it---if it is bowed a little it is most likely your problem---There is a easy way to prove this---with the door removed engage the switch with something not metal ( a plastic shaft or wood match) so the lever which is visable is engaged.
If the set comes on this way--you need to replace the door----There are places on the net and Ebay that sell a replacement---DO NOT BY PASS THE SWITCH AND PUT THE LARGE PLASTIC FRONT PIECE BACK ON---YOU MAY MELT IT ALSO--THE DANGER OF LONG TERM OPERATION WITH THE SWITCH BYPASSED AND THE LAMP EXPOSED IS THE LAMP GETS VERY BRIGHT AND HOT--DO NOT LOOK AT IT DIRECTLY.
Let me know what you find and if you need more help let me know--I am here to help people.

Kds60a2000 tv won't switch on red light blinks 6
Have you tried putting in a new bulb for the screen. Our TV did that and it was the bulb needed replacing. Ours is on the side towards the back. You can order it online, its cheaper than paying a repair man to do it. The first time we did it cost us 500 dollars and then the second time it happened I ordered off ebay for only 170 dollars. Big difference Huh ;) Good Luck

You need a new optical engine.Sony still covers this model for your problem under warranty.Call customer service at Sony and they will get you started.
I have a red line going across the screen. It
Disconnect the inputs to the TV one by one and see if the line disappears. If it does then the component that you disconnected is causing the issue with some A.C. leakage getting into the TV at that point. I have a feeling you have a cable box that is causing the issue.
