Sony Trinitron picture flickers off and on

Definitely if your description is accurate, it's a weak CRT. You might be able to buy a few months by backing down the G2 control just a hair, but you need to be planning on another set, or if you want to keep that one, find another set with that tube and swap it.

If the set happens to be a 1989-90 KV-32SXR10, it could be a bad solder connection at the delay line on the video board, but that's ONLY on that model. And the greenish hue IS the CRT, even if the flickering isn't .

Hey Charles, you helped me with my 27" EXR set several years ago having this same problem with the blinking CRT, and helped me cross-reference a replacement tube that I had on hand. Long story short, it's still working perfectly today.
