I have a sony wega kv36fs12.Recently I noted the standby light flasing 5 times.Then months later the color is goofy,seems I lost green?Tried to reset colors and reset tv but did not help.I called a repair service (Qualserve) and they said I need a new tube and quoted 1800.00.The tv new is 799.00I dont think it is the tube because no picture problem other than color issues.Can anyone help?
I'm not the TV guru here, but I have repaired a number of them in my day. Larry can provide more detailed information, but I doubt that the problem is the tube. It is possible, but I would have checked for bad driver transistors on the CRT module as well as the high voltage area. The 5 blinks usually mean a problem with the high voltage section (flyback). Shoot me an Email with your location.
