Experience
In order to properly assist you, it is very important that you provide the Model number of the television and the year it was manufactured. You can find this information on the back of the TV. Please also let me know if you are trying to fix the unit or just need to know the cost for repair.

TV/VCR/Stereo Troubleshooting - Black/Dark Screen w/good sound


Expert: Allan Wainwright - 7/7/2009

Question
Sony Wega FD Trinitron television, model: KV36HS20. when powered up either from the remote or front panel the screen is black with no display what so ever but has excellent sound. The blink code is not always the same, I have seen it blink 7 times, also 6 times and once I thought it blink 11 times. Heres the kicker if left unplugged for a few days (week maybe) the unit powers up normally and runs just fine for maybe three weeks, then no picture. This only occurs when the unit is first turned on, it doesn't happen if the while it is running. TV repair guy came to house and found nothing wrong with it.

Answer
this is very common on your model. your power supply in the tv is going bad and is in need of a repair. a cost will range around 300

Good luck :)
Let me know if you need more info or help?
