I was able to pick up a Sony KDS-R60XBR1 and it had a green tint to it at first so i replaced the bulb which helped a bit but slowly got worse. After getting really green i replaced the bulb again which still showed the green tint for a couple of minutes and then the tv went completely red. Now the entire picture is in complete red tint on every input. Adjusting the menu settings does nothing. Can anyone tell me exactly whats wrong? I would like to repair the tv. The previous owner removed the serial number so calling Sony will be of no help to me. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I am having a horrible issue with our kds – r60xbr1 that was given to me by a friend who moved to thialand. It worked for 2 months. then last sunday while watching a program it went dead. i went to tv and seen it was the lamp lite by the lite flashing on screen. I purchased a new one and installed it properly and turned tv on and now the standby light is flashing 6 times indicating the thermas fuse is bad. I have called sony asking for help.. What a bunch of loosers they are. no help at all. I have found the replacement part through amazon and have ordered it but now cant find any information on how to replace it (once it arrives). does anyone have any information to help me out please. Lost with out our tv….

I purchased my Sony KDS-R60XBR1 on April 27, 2006. I just changed the bulb for the first time.
I don’t know if this is any help but when I set up my home stero system I purchased a device that regulates the power that goes into the TV. I was told that pluging the system directly into the wall
may absorb the power surges that occur. All I can say is that I have not had any problems with this set and it looks like I am a very lucky person.

Hi Ted, I just had the same green problem with my Sony KDS-R60XBR1. Can you please contact me at 5083317587 or email at cdemers024@comcast.net. I just want to make sure I handle my call to Sony correctly so that I can get a fair deal as you did. I would really appreciate your call. Thanks Chas

Your bulb is gone out. It has happened to me twice on my set..
New bulb cost about $100. You can change yourself if you are handy. Use special care not to touch bulbb surface with bare hand.
Hope this helps.

I had the same old green haze and it turned out to be the actual projector. Call Sony and have them send a certified tech to come and fix it. Our problem fell under warranty so the cost to me was nil.
