<title><![CDATA[Sony PlayStation 3D Display: HELP! Strange vertical lines of dots ( Images Included )]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Strange vertical lines of dots started to fade in</p>

<p>it was barely visible at first but within 3-4 days it became annoying as shown in the images.</p>

<ul><li>the problem effects all type of inputs even with no inputs at all still present on black screen</li><li>tried the hard reset</li><li>back panel removed and checked all the connectors, cleaned it with motherboard cleaner, and reconnect each and checked that it's properly connected</li><li>i only used the screen for 8 weeks just before the problem appears</li><li>i unscrewed the main board and tried to bend it a little just to see if the problem would disappear maybe it's a bad soldering or something but nothing happened</li></ul>

<p><strong>NOTED DURING INSPECTION ( Powered on )</strong></p>

<ol><li>High Temp of the heat sinks on the main board</li><li>An untraceable noise i don't know if it's from the screen itself or from one of the boards ( sound like a faulty Coil or capacitor i don't know ) even with the speakers connectors disconnected</li></ol>

<p>Before The Problem</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony PlayStation 3D Display: power sequence and error code?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I was given a Sony 3D display. I don't have or use a PlayStation.</p>

<p>I turned the monitor on but got nothing but a black screen. However, the front panel leds at the bottom of the screen seemed to indicate activity.</p>

<p>I've read another post with similar problem but either the details are missing, or the cases are different.</p>

<p>------------update-----------</p>

<p>I have since discovered that the problem is common to the product and is frequently resolved by replacing an eeprom labeled 'U4' on the circuitboard.</p>

<p>Jim J.</p>

<p>---------------------------------------</p>

<p>What follows is a description of the boot sequence.</p>

<p>Sony 3D Display power sequence :</p>

<p>plug in</p>

<p>red led comes on;</p>

<p>press on button;</p>

<p>3&quot; wide blue beam comes on for 7 or 8 seconds;</p>

<p>replaced by green led for 7 or 8 seconds;</p>

<p>replaced by blinking red led</p>

<p>blinks twice, waits moment, blinks twice, and so on until the piwer is turned off.</p>

<p>Is the last an error code?</p>

<p>Thank you,</p>

<p>Jim Julian</p>
