Sony 1272Q Error Code 8

[ralede]

Getting error code 8 on start up, 2 different machines. One powers up and stays on with no video. Machine 2 powers up, displays the 8 and shuts down. Help please! Thanks, Ralph.

From my copy of the 1272 installation manual it hints at code 8 meaning V-stop. Quite what that means I'm not sure, though I would imagine it means there's some kind of problem with the vertical deflection circuit.

Did a quick search on AVS forum and found the following.
