Sony KDL-46XBR2 issue

Try this :

Using the Sony remote > turn off the TV

Then using the Sony remote , press :

Display > 5 > Volume Down > Power

This will bring up the Self Test Menu < DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS >

They should be all "0..." , if not , write down the error number of the item that has failed.

If you see all Zero`s , thats great , if not you will be able to take that info to Sony or a Sony tech and they should be able to give you a repair quote.

Now , if you do see all ZERO`S , try this :

Turn the TV off by remote , then PRESS and HOLD the remote power button ( while aiming the remote at the sensor ) and turn the TV on by using the power button on the TV.

The TV will start then stop then start and reset itself and you will have ALL FACTORY SETTINGS.

If you have done any calibration write down the values before reset.

Best of luck , I have the same set in a 40" version and it`s a great TV , well worth fixing even though it`s only 60Hz refresh rate.

Take care and good luck

I just looked at your .jpg , have you moved the TV ?

I don`t like the look of that blue line , but a hard reset might work.

After looking more closely at your pic. you might get an OK self test , so just do a hard reset anyway , and hope for the best.

IF the TV was move was the screen bumped in anyway ?

If after reset the screen is still messed up , turn off TV and using a "Micro Fiber" cloth firmly wipe down the TV using a right to left motion , not too firm but firmer than normal cleaning.

Just a shot in the dark , but worth a try , take care.
