Sony Grand Wega kf-50we610 6 flashing lights

[duffman9465]

So I have a Sony Grand Wega kf-50we610 50 inch tv and for the last week and a half I've experienced 6 flashing red lights when trying to turn it on. Here's what I've tried: replace the lamp, and replace the lamp ballast (which was in bad shape). After replacing the ballast, I still experienced the problem. There is no sound or video. I just hear a click when turning on the tv and then see the red flashing light. I've read that it may be the thermal fuse/sensor, or whatever it's called, but I do not know what that looks like or where it is. I've spent days looking up a solution, but to no avail. If someone could give me a detailed walkthrough with detailed pictures, it would be very much appreciated
