Need your help once again group, and this is my own TV. Got the 4 red
blinks on the power light. Set won't come up. Web search says this
code is loss of verical. I can't find any info other than this. I
hoped that this problem would be somewhat common to this particular
model with a common fix. I don't have the schematic, but will have to
get it if no more info available about this problem. The set is out of
warranty and is only about 3 years old. Anyone aware of this as a
common issue with this set, and the fix? Thanks group.

** There is in fact a huge amount of info on your set on the net - all of it
bad news.

Sony rear projection sets like yours ( using SXRD ) are notorious lemons
with very high failure rates of the "optical block" . A number of class
action law suits against Sony in the USA have been settled or are still in
progress over the matter.

That error code refers to previous models. Yours has no such vertical
circuit. More likely a bad lamp.
