Sony Bravia TV, stays on standby with a flashing red light, 4 flashes then 2 second gap then 4 flashes....... Model: KDL-40S2010. Can you help?.

14 blinks to Sony Brand LCDs indicates a 'Backend error'. It means that, the main board to this TV should be checked for fault. In most cases the main board might need replacement, and a software update too. If you wish to know more details about this blinking code, check this link.

Seek professional serv technician. No listing for 13 fashes only up to 9.

Take it down from its mount and try to restart it if this resolves the issue your mount is too tight on the back of the lcd monitor.. This happend to me as well good luck with your BRAVIA

the error code is triggered by the inverter fuses, which blow when the inverter fails

I would guess your power supply board is slowly disintegrating. It is hard to tell what it is, until it finishes frying itself out. Plan on replacing the power board soon, 1-3 months maybe.

Hold The Off Button for 20 sec should make clicking noise switch off at power and on again should be working

you can have the inverter board replaced...instead of the entire panel.

what model of Sony is it? On many of the Sony projectors, a 3 flash error code indicates the lamp is not properly seated/installed or the lamp door is not closed properly
