I try to turn on the tv and the green light just blinks, nothing happens. After a few minutes it shuts off and the red light blinks two times and pauses. The red light blinks until I disconect from the power source.

power light if it shuts down should blink a error code--count the blinks and a pause?

Look at the power supply first, look for burnt parts, bad capacitors, etc.

Replace the Main Power Supply inside the TV.

Hi,
Symptom shows Lamp is weak in result and causing restart of TV again and again. Your TV requires new lamp as per following part number...
A1085447A* LAMP BLOCK ASSY XL-2200U
It is available in Sony Accessories Store for $200 and replacement procedure is written in instruction manual of TV.

Always buy Sony original lamp for TV and avoid aftermarket / cheap lamp for TV safety.

will turn on tv with remote. stays on green for about 1 second and goes back to red.

How many times Red Lamp flashes, its important as it shows problem and its location in tv. Below is detail of lamp blinks and you may know the problem area in tv by counting lamp flashes.


Need further help, let me know.

I get 5 blinking red lights for about a minute or so before it powers back down. The Sony TV has a specific light that i presume is supposed to light up when the bulb is out. I'm unsure if this is what it is.
no picture, no sound. tries to boot with green light blinking a few times. then goes to red blinking light, six in all, then waits a few moments, then another 6 blinking red light.
Bulb was already replaced several months ago but we do have the TV on for long periods of time.

old lamp, replace the lamp

the tv will try to reboot a few times. just let i try and eventually it will start blinking red. if you could count the red blinks then i can further assist you.
