Lets just nip this in the bud. If its a LCD or LED TV and has a power board failure figure the base price to repair is around $200. In current TVs there are only a few boards and the cost to replace all of them is $400-$600. If the screen is gone (shorted or cracked) its trash. If you are not a TV enthusiast then you can purchase a new (low end) 46" LCD for under $400. If you want a upper middle of the road 46" then it runs around $800. If you want a high end 46" then look at a base of $1300 and up.
The 32" TVs in this thread are not economical to repair as replacement cost is often less then repair cost.
The Sony Wega KV-32HS510 mentioned in the post above is a CRT TV. It's 4:3 (letterbox) aspect ratio and goes up to 720p / 1080i.
Personally, I don't think CRT's are worth the time and money to fix nowadays however the poster said that they cant afford to replace it right now and they don't want to anyway so I would suggest that they call a TV repair technician that will come to the house (who want's to lug a CRT to the repair store?) and see what they say. Maybe the D board won't be expensive to replace.

The trip charge and the estimate fee alone, make it a waste of money. Low end TVs have dropped below the $200 mark and come with warranties.

Open up the TV and locate the three fans. Clean all of them and verify all are spinning. You may to replace one or more of them if you find it filled with dirt as it may have shorted out. As to the bulb, re-seat it and make sure the door is shut.
Just keep in mind before spending anymore money on this TV, that its 7 years old.

It's a tube TV. It requires soldering to repair. The 4 blinks usually mean a vertical deflection problem. Not economical to repair.
