Sony Sony XR-55X90K 55-Inch 4K Full Array LED BRAVIA XR Smart TV NO PICTURE Error Fix: No Image on Screen — TV Appears On

Error code NO PICTURE on the Sony Sony XR-55X90K 55-Inch 4K Full Array LED BRAVIA XR Smart TV means: No Image on Screen — TV Appears On. The TV appears to be powered on (the standby LED is off as expected during normal operation, and sound may be playing through the speakers) but the screen is completely dark or black. If sound is present from the TV speakers, the main board and tuner are functioning correctly and the problem is isolated to the display path. Perform the flashlight test: shine a bright flashlight at the screen at a sharp angle in a dark room. If a faint image is visible, the backlight has failed while the LCD panel itself is still working — this is the most common cause. If no image is visible even with a flashlight, the T-Con board, panel, or the video output section of the main board may have failed. Also check that the correct input source is selected and that the screen brightness has not been set to minimum.
