How to Determine the Sony Trinitron Model
Sony's Trinitron brand of televisions was introduced in 1968, and millions of consumers bought these TV sets before the line was discontinued in 2008. Trinitrons have a history of reliable performance, but like all electronic devices, the parts on these TVs can wear out or break. If this happens, you'll need to know the model number of your Trinitron so you can have the set repaired. On most Trinitrons, the model number can be found on the back of the television and in the user manual.
