My SONY 60" tv just cut off the other day and the power light is blinking RED 6 times. Any advice ?? I called Sony they recommended 3 or so service companies. Brandsmart will come out for $300 min.

Let me know what you think.

THANKS !

HI,in order to help you ,you will need to tell me the symptoms.If you hear clicking or like something trying turn on most likely its the ballast (the board that powers the lamp) If you don't and tv is between 2-4 yrs most likely it's the lamp that needs to be replaced.You can do it yourself.Here's the lamp you need http://cgi.ebay.com/XL-2200-PHILIPS-...4.c0.m14.l1262 Here's instructions: http://guides.fixyourdlp.com/sony/XL-2200.php Good luck and God bless you!
