SERVICE MODE LED BLINKING CODE AND DESCRIPTION
SELF DIAGNOSIS
The identification of errors within the SE1A
chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to
respond to IIC. In the event of one of these situations arising the software
will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a
continuous flashing LED) and then communicate with each device in turn to
establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must
be counted).

SONY TV SERVICE TIPS
SONY KV32XBR45
CONVERGENCE PROBLEM
TV has convergence of all vertical lines
are displace horizontally
SOLUTION
Suggest tech look for R789 and see if it is open It is on the on "C" board. It The value is around 10 meg. There are two different chassis and CRTs used for this model. If they have the older chassis type that requires H stat convergence (CRT board has H stat control) they need to order the older CRT as per the manual. If newer type (No H stat) then the new CRT as per Service Manual supplement -1 is needed. CRT 8-733-743-05 The H Stat is done using the Yoke ring magnets. I have attached the two Service Manual supplements, and the SB325R1
