Does your headphone have a separate volume adjusting? Also check that your TV volume is up..

    Thanks for the reply. headphone cable is new and works with other things. Don't know what you mean by 'different depths into tv..' Explain?

    Some electronic equipment plugins get loose and if you just press the plug to as deep as you can, it might not work to its full potential. So just try it with your headphones on...

    'plugins' is what has me confused. Headphone connector plugged into TV as far as it will go, but thanks for trying to help! baffled.

SOURCE: tv bravia kdl 40v3000 problem turning on

Hello,

Unfortunately, this is a failure of the balancer board for the backlight. The unfortunate part is that the balancer is not available by itself anymore, and the whole panel must be replaced, as Sony only has the balancers attached to new panels. You can contact Sony directly to ask for assistance, and it usually helps.

Hope this helps you...

SOURCE: sony bravia kdl-52w3000, turn tv on, no picture or

Most likely this is caused by a defective main board. Changing the main board will fix the issue about 95% of the time.

To be absolutely sure, the voltages need to be checked on the power supply. If they are not the values listed in the service manual, then you should replace the power supply instead (accounts for the other 5% of the time).

it sounds like your back light might be going out. You might be able to fix this by installing a new backlight inverter board.

SOURCE: Have a sony KDL - 46v5100 volume problem

Tap the "Theater" button on the remote. You should see either "Theater Mode: On" or "Theater Mode: Off". If it is off, tap it again to turn it on and wait for it to go away. Now tap again (should say "Theater Mode: On") and then press and hold it for about a second. This should actually turn it off, as opposed to just pretending to. Works on my larger Sony KDL.

I can't get sound through my headphones on my Bravia kdl-52xbr5 tv. First time I have tried to hook up the headphones which are sharper image wireless

I take it the headphones are charged up and known to be in good working order? Are you using the 3.5mm headphone jack on the side of the TV or the white and red RCA jacks labeled AUDIO OUT (VAR/FIX)? If using the headphone jack the TV should shut off the internal speakers and output to the headphones. If using the mentioned RCA jacks you need to go into the audio options settings and set to Audio System. Also under audio settings, Audio Out, you can pick Fixed or Variable. If you opt for Fixed you will use the headphones to adjust the volume. If you opt for Variable you can control the headphone volume and muting using your TV remote control. Just make sure you have the headphone volume turned up adequately.

My Sony KDL 4040W4100 Keeps turning off and then turns back on again durning a show... what is the problem?

These trouble is commonly caused by a rusty or dirty switch. It is easily to determine what switch, try to check the power switch or replace a new one. When replacing a switch open the back cover of your tv, try to locate the power switch by looking for the power button, It is connected in a small pcb together with the volume and channel button it is separated to the main pcb connected with a wire.

How do I turn off CC on Sony Bravia

This appears to be an repair issue.
We are experiencing the same problems. No matter what setting we use for the 40EX500, the close captioning does not seem to come on or off.
We have a HD receiver which has a setting to disable or enable. Setting to enable allows CC to be seen on the TV, but it cannot be turned off or on with the CC button on the Sony Remote. Disabling the box, then disables the CC completely on the TV.
I do not know what the issue is, and calling Sony directly is a waste of time, the holding times are unacceptable.

How do i hook external speakers to sony bravia television

The proper way to do this would be to use the audio output from the TV, either analogue left and right or the optical port, and send it into an dedicated amplifier or AV receiver. You can then use the amplifier or receiver to power the external speakers. If you are using a dedicated amplifier with no volume control you will want to change the audio output setting on the TV to "variable out" as oppose to its current "fixed out"settings. You can find this in the TV menu, usually under the audio settings. This will allow you to use the current TV remote to adjust the audio volume coming out of the external speakers.

Programming Harmony 880 Remote to Mute with CC on Sony Bravia KDL-40W4100

Do you use a Home Theater receiver along with your televison?  Are other components, such as a DVD player, VCR, Blu-ray player, etc. connected?
If so, it's possible that the Mute function on your remote is muting the sound from your receiver, and not the TV itself.
If that's the case, you'll need to look at the details of the "default" buttons for your activities, and see whether the Mute function is associated with your TV or your receiver.  If it's set for the receiver, you need to change it to be associated with the TV.
