Sony Trinitron keeps blinking on and off?

My Sony Trinitron TV powers up but then keeps blinking on and off for a while then it will come on steady. Not dependable, no way of telling how long it will blink on and off before staying on. What does this mean? How can we fix it?

unfortunately it's now on its last legs so to speak. i had the same problem so took it to a local TV repair shop. he said that where the TV had been turned on and off over the years the Tube inside it had virtually boiled itself. he did what he could but said he had no idea how much longer it would keep working and that it couldnt be repaired anyfurther. mine lasted a few more months before the problem came back. it deteriated slowly before it was pretty much unusable. My advice is to get it repaired first. it only cost more about £10/20 to keep it going a few more months. in the meantime, save up for a new TV. make sure its not a secondhand tube TV or it will do the same pretty soon
