KD49x8005c won't turn on

adj1963 — Wed, 09 Oct 2019 16:02:02 GMT

Hi, I hope someone in the community can help as i think I've exhausted all options apart from taking it to a service centre and we all know how expensive that could be! I've tried disconnecting all the other cables attached to the tv , switching the tv on with just the mains connected, unplugging the mains and plugging it back in ,checking it works in another outlet , holding the power and volume up button on the tv simultaneously and all that happens is the white led light comes on for about 20 seconds then goes off , once the Sony logo came on 3 times but i haven't seen it since , any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi adj1963,

Welcome to the community.

I'm just going to try to find some answers for you. In the meantime, maybe someone else in the community might have some ideas.

Thanks,

Hi Adj1963,

I'm afraid that at this point, contacting the engineers is the only option as this seems to be a hardware issue.

Cheers,

Is there an answer to this. My kd49x8005c has recently become a petulant beast and is now not powering at all. The drain residual electricity technique worked once but now it feels terminal. I hope it’s not. Would be really disappointed with Sony if the life span of a quality device is less than 4 years! Can anyone suggest anything else?
