It has been my experience that when the red light flashes on my TV that the lamp needs to be replaced. You might try removing the lamp and re-inserting it to see if that fixes it, but if you get the same flashing of the light on your TV, you probably need to replace the lamp. Cheap and easy to do! Just follow the directions in your owner's manual!

That is I believe your cooling fan Not working properly. It is behind the lamp at the back of the TV. Fairly easy access.

I have the STR-DN1000. Two days ago it started going into "Protection" and then shuts off. It might work for an hour, or only 10 minutes. Anyone else with the issue? And what did you do about it?It worked great until 2 days ago. I have had it since Dec 2009.Sony STR-DN1000 7.1-Channel Audio Video Receiver (Black)

Update on my kdv2500 for anyone who cares.. my first one developed 3 dead pixels(2 red, 1 blue), so i exchanged it within the 30 days and bought the extended warranty as long as i was there, having learned my lesson. now the new one has 2 dead pixels (1 red, 1 green) and that infamous "clouding" issue when the screen goes or is supposed to go all black. I'm going to exchange it one more time and if there's an issue with the next one I'm probably gonna go with the 46' model or another tv all together. BTW i called Sony Support to see what they cover in terms of dead pixels and the said they won't do any service unless at least 10 blow out. IMO that's ridiculous. It should be like 3 or something, not 10.

I had the same issue, I returned the light, even after getting it perfect it has obvious power management issues, it works for a couple of minutes then shut off, I advise you to return it and opt for the Probuilt T2600.....awesome, or for a bit more you will be thrilled with the X21R from LED LENSER...either one will blow your mind!!!

Hello, I just received my unit. I plugged it in and the Power Light was flashing red AND the blue UV-C light was flashing. Resetting the unit by pushing and holding in the UV-C Button changed the power light to green but the UV-C light is still flashing. Any suggestions? Possibly the bulb was damaged in transit and needs replaced? Thanks for any help!

Maybe that may not be the right bulb for your television,or the bulb maybe defected,or there may be another problem,not the bulb,check the owner manual or call Sony.

Sorry but I will need more information. What do you mean by "stop after 15 min" ? Was it no power at all or would not play a DVD? I have been using my Sony for years and occasionally have to unplug it and replug it in to clear internal glitches, but other than that I have had no trouble at all.

I bought this bulb and another similar priced bulb. Both had a dark red streak across the top. So I contacted Sony and bought their bulb for a lot more $. I am supposed to get in around 1/4. Bottom line - the cheaper replacement bulbs just didn't 't work for me. Good luck.

I just unplugged the power from my second device and tried it, and it worked for a moment before it began flickering (failed). So at least in my case with a PS3 and PS4, they both need to be on (Standby suffices).EDIT: Wanted to clarify, it seems the devices just need to be powered, but not necessarily flipped on.

Make sure that the replacement bulb is a sony. The other ones start to go bad as soon as you put them in. You really can't tell if the bulb is any good because you are comparing it to the one that now defective. The sony I purchased is working fine better then any off brand I ever bought.

I have the same problem! This has really been bothering me, especially when it goes in and out. I am going to try to change the backlight and also notice if it has something to so with it only happening with bright shots.) Since it is under service warranty, I definitely plan to call the service repair number. Did any of you call for service? I will check the model of my 40" sony.

I found a partial workaround solution for my problem (like yours) of the unit turning off a few seconds after turning it on. I press (and hold) the Stop button, and then the On button, and continue to press them both until the blue SA-CD light and the blue MultiChannel light go off, and then back on again. After that, the unit works ! Except that the LCD panel remains blank. Many (perhaps all) of the front panel buttons work. I still need to experiment to see if the remote works, and to what extent.Sony gave me the choice of a refurbished unit, or to repair mine, under warranty.

Mine does the same thing, showing only the blue SA-CD light, the blue MultiChannel light, and the interior blue light, for about 5 seconds, then turns itself off. Did you get it fixed ? What was the problem ?Thanks ! Mine is under warranty, but I'm contemplating having it fixed locally.

According to Sony directions , this is what they say to do."ERROR" appears in the display and the unit turns offautomatically. If this symptom occurs frequently, consult your nearest Sony dealer. Be sure the battery is fully charged and perhaps it will be a good idea to unplug the batteryfor 15 minutes and then plug it back in to reset it , and see how it works. Carl H
