Sony KDL-46z4100- No Standby Light/ Powers On Only With Vertical Lines

mlccc2 — Wed, 13 May 2020 09:08:00 GMT

I have a Sony KDL-46z4100 that won't show a red stand-by light at all. TV will power on with a green light, but only with vertical lines, no sound and no ability to change the input or channels. I've purchased a few pre-owned boards, main boards, t-con boards and power supply boards off Ebay with no luck getting a standby light or the lines off the screen. Any help or suggestions to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi @mlccc2, welcome to the Community.

The vertical lines sound like a problem with the panel, although this may have no bearing on the standby light issue. Have you ruled that out?

Regards,

Mick

Hi Mick-

Thanks for the reply. Yes I did rule out the panel. I acquired this TV from my neighbor whom I still have contact with that claims he turned it off one night and when he went for it again, it had just vertical lines on it.
