I have a Sony Tv, Model KV-36FV26 that the cable repairman said we need to replace the tuner. The picture would go out and he said to unplug it wait, plug it back in and it would work. I did this for awhile and it worked, but it finally quit working. Does that sound like the tuner? How much are they?

The RF amplifier in the tuner has been damaged. You will need to replace the tuner. A suitable replacement tuner from a wrecked Sony tv would be you cheapest option.

If the picture is washed out showing poor color it is the picture tube that is the problem, overtime the emission from the guns gradually declines until the picture balance is lost and it progressively gets worse. I recommend you replace it since repairs would involve a new picture tube and cost more than a new set.
This was a common problem with the Tuners of these models. The replacing of the Tuner should fix the Problem. You may be able to order it from Sony.

I gave you exact and correct lamp part number of KDF-E55A20 and explained in previous reply that there is no difference between XL-2200 and XL-2200U lamp. both are same, first on came with new TV and second one is its replacement number.
Check is RF Antena/ Cable connected? If yes, go to TV Menu and select Auto-Program. TV will start tuning and search all available channels on cable/ on-air. If there is no channel reception, TV has defective Tuner. If you know basic electronics knowledge, replace the Tuner or contact nearest Sony repair shop.
