Sony Bravia KDL 50R550A six blinking light issue.

Hi Darryl mclellan, because of the amount of flashes, it is very possible failure in the system of LEDs of back lighting or the circuit that feeds it

6 red flashes- backlight issue, bad main board, or power board or inverter boards- check standby volts on power board. "backlight on" volts should be 3-5v from main logic board then 24v to inverter


Have this from a youtube link find BUT
Better is to look first also on bad leaking or bulged capacitors thats better to replace in the bad components to get a repair because active components died on bad capacitors but after a while because on the build-in protection circuit by faults like deformed or leaking capacitors and even several fuse resistors then after replace a complete board again after a while you will may be get the same kind of problems again, take If you find some or much bad capacitors replacements 10 volts dc higher . begin with control on the power supply first of all.

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

Hi Tim
In my opinion
No... the LED's are doing their job
Error reporting
Modern TV's are computers and try to indicate where a problem exists.
Does it need a Firmware upgrade?

Red green or orange lights are on or blinking on the TV

It is either the power supply or the LED panel. Here is a discussion: https://community.sony.com/t5/Customer-Relations/KDL-50R550A-Blinking-Lights/td-p/463756

2 lights blinking.

No Vertical Sync is the fault. This is a main board fault. The main board might need replacement. But before confirming, check all the voltages comes to the main board from the power regulator board. If you wish to know more about the voltages and their sources, check this link.
