Sony TV: Yellow LED on

steady
Our drawing: the light under the screen, yellow, on steady.

“Hey Google” has been heard and the TV is talking to Google’s server. Only on TVs with an illumination LED and a built-in microphone.

Applies to: Sony BRAVIA Google TV models covered by the 2022 Help Guide (E-180-100-15(1), US English edition), both the illumination LED models and the operational response LED models. What you see: yellow, on steady.

What Sony says to do

Sony’s page gives no step for this state: it is what the TV normally does, or the meaning above is all it says.

No repair advice of our own. The steps above are only Sony’s, as its page states them; semiatic gives no repair instructions of its own. Nothing here asks you to go inside the TV: anything beyond Sony’s own steps is a job for Sony Customer Support.
