How to check TV Sony Bravia KDL-26S2020 HDMI port and change it?

Hello Dudes,

My English is pretty poor but I try to explain my problem.

I bought on Friday 5/8 a Sony TV, KDL-26S2020 (manufactured 2006).

Everything is fine except my HDMI port. When I plug any device on it, nothing appears (no video, no sound). I ask the guys who sold me the device and he told me that he had te same problem before.

My questions are :

  1. How to check HDMI port on tv's motherboard ?
  2. How to change it ? Where can I get this/these electronic components ?

I published on the Internet 2 docs, you can download or view it for free on my drive :

I'm living in Versailles, next to Paris, FRANCE.

Thanks buddy

Check on pin 18 to see if you even have power to the port. It should show you +5volts

@Oldturkey03 : Thank you very much for your helping message :)

Here is a snap from Wikipédia (with pins numbers):

I think I should plug my Black cable voltmeter on Pin #17 (Ground) and Red cable on Pin #18 but I'm not really sure.

Other question : should I switch on the TV to check the port ?

Thank you :D

The answer is yes to both, Black to ground and red to pin 18. Turn your TV on to see if it supplies to voltage to the port.

@oldturkey03 : OK, I'll check it ASAP. Next week I'm mooving to Germany for 2 months and this week I've finals at the university so not much free time. I would go for your diagnostic option.

I've already emailed Sony France to ask them for service manual and they don't want to cooperate with me :s.

They replied me this funny thing :

"Sony France déconseille l'intervention personnelle sur un appareil et conseille fortement de confier l'appareil à un professionnel. [...] Je vous invite à contacter le service SAV Cordon au 01 55 90 31 41"

Well if you translate it means "Sony advice you to phone Cordon (after-sales service) +33 1 55 90 31 41 to take a professional care of your TV". WTF, last time I used this "Service", Sony/Cordon lost my phone and I had to send many letters to them to be refunded ...

Here is the screenshot :)

Hello, I checked electricity on the HDMI port and there is no volt. I think that I should ask someone to repair it or do it on my own.

Do you know where can I shop this kind of stuff ? Amazon ? iFixit ?

:D

If your television is experiencing HDMI troubles including no signal and distorted video, see the Insignia NS-24ER310NA17 No Signal With HDMI problem page for possible causes and solutions.
