How to fix no picture on my Sony Flat Panel TV but the power light is on?
- C
  charlesrandolphAug 18, 2025
  If your Sony Flat Panel TV has no picture but the power indicator is lit, it could be due to a few reasons. First, a different input might be selected. Try pressing one of the input selection buttons (INPUT1, INPUT2, OPTION1, or OPTION2) on the remote control, or switch between the input signals by pressing the INPUT button on the top of the display. Second, a protective shutdown may have activated due to internal heat buildup. In this case, the power indicator flashes red four times in a row. Turn off the power, ensure the air vents are not blocked, there's ample space for airflow, and the room ventilation is working. The display should operate properly again when the internal temperature returns to normal.

Why does my Sony FWD-50PX2 Flat Panel TV turn off after a short time?

  If your Sony Flat Panel TV's display power or screen turns off after a short time, the “Auto Shut Off” function may be set to “On”; to make the display power stay on indefinitely, set this function to “Off”. Alternatively, the “On/Off Timer” function may have been set; check the On/Off Timer setting in the TIMER/CLOCK menu. Finally, a protective shutdown may have activated due to internal heat buildup; in this case, the power indicator flashes red four times in a row. Turn off the power, ensure the air vents are not blocked, there's ample space for airflow, and the room ventilation is working. The display should operate properly again when the internal temperature returns to normal.

Why are there horizontal lines on my Sony FWD-50PX2?
- A
  Andrea SchneiderAug 31, 2025
  Horizontal lines of static disturbing the picture on your Sony Flat Panel TV can be caused by the internal temperature of the display getting too high. Turn off the power, and make sure that the air vents are not blocked, that there is ample space for air to flow around the display, and that the ventilation in the room is working properly. When the internal temperature returns to normal, the picture will display properly again.

  If neither the remote control nor a Control S connection can be used to toggle between RGB and YUV (component), or between VIDEO (component video) and S-VIDEO (Y/C) on your Sony Flat Panel TV, the “Input Setting” for the selected input might be set to “Fix”. If you want the input signal to toggle with each press of the button, set the “Input Setting” to “Selectable”.

Why doesn't my Sony FWD-50PX2 Flat Panel TV remote control work?
- K
  katherinewilliamsNov 14, 2025
  There could be several reasons why your Sony Flat Panel TV remote control isn't working. First, the 'Control Mode' might be set to 'Display Unit Only'; in this case, use the control buttons on the top of the display to check the setting in the main menu under 'CUSTOM SETUP' then 'Remote' then 'Control Mode'. Second, a cable might be connected to the CONTROL S IN connector, preventing remote control use. Third, the remote's batteries might be drained, so try replacing them or operating the display with the buttons on top. Fourth, something might be blocking the remote control signal detector on the display. Finally, if the input signal doesn't toggle after pressing the INPUT2, OPTION1, or OPTION2 button at least two times, the 'Input Setting' for the selected input is set to 'Fix'; set the ...

What to do if colors do not display properly on Sony Flat Panel TV?
- J
  Jermaine YoderNov 20, 2025
  If the colors on your Sony Flat Panel TV aren't displaying correctly, it could be due to several factors. It's possible that the display input is set to COMPONENT (YUV) but the input signal is RGB, or vice versa; try pressing one of the input selection buttons (INPUT2, OPTION1, or OPTION2) on the remote control, or switch between the input signals by pressing the INPUT button on the top of the display. Another reason might be that the “Pic. Inversion” screen saver is set to “Auto” or “On”; to return to the normal picture, set the screen saver to “Off”. Also, check that the cable connected to VIDEO OUT or S-VIDEO OUT on the display is securely connected to the device at the other end; if not, check the connection or disconnect the cable. Lastly, the signal cable might not be connected prope...
