Afterwards, try turning on your television set by pressing the power button on the TV set as well as the power button on your remote.

5. You can also try factory resetting your Sony A80K, A90K, A95K, X80K, X85K, X90K, X95K or Z9K. In order to do so, we recommend that you take the following steps:

  • Unplug the power cord of your television set from the power outlet.
  • Press and hold the power button and volume down buttons located on the TV at the same time. If your TV only has a power button, then you only need to hold that button down.
  • With the button(s) held down, plug the television set back into the power outlet.
  • Keep holding the buttons down for 30 seconds. If your TV turns on, then it will automatically start the factor resetting process.
  • During this process, make sure you avoid turning off or unplugging your television set.

If your A80K, A90K, A95K, X80K, X85K, X90K, X95K or Z9K television set is still not turning off after your try all of the aforementioned solutions, then you might want to contact Sony about sending in your TV to be repaired or replaced.
