Black screen and power lite flashes red six times

when I turn my tv on the green power lite comes on then goes red and will flash six times continuously. when the power lite is on green I can flash a light on the screen and something can be seen on the screen. acts like there is no back lite. there is no sound either. the model number is: KDL-40BX420.
