How to Fix Picture problem - DLP TV Review

[@CraigoryAbbit]

This video helped me... I changed the bulb💡, a few days ago... It seems to be working pretty good so far... I paid 25 for the bulb💡... 👍🏾...

[@carriecooper226]

FYI, my lamp blew and sounded like a big boom of glass shattering, and scared me! I bought a new bulb via Ebay or Amazon for less than $20! I think it was about $15 and delivered to me. Very easy for me to replace... Hope this helps anyone needing a bulb! Super cheap and easy, no problems... And, I'm a chick!

[@TampaTec]

+C Cooper awesome, good job! Hope your comment will give others confidence to fix their TVs too. Like her post if it does, so we know. Thanks

[@carolynjohnson9763]

Tampatec my TV is dark I can barley see the pic which bulb needs to be replaced. It's a 75" Mitsubishi ldp

[@NunYa953]

carolyn johnson there's only one bulb in it I believe.

[@robinpratt8700]

Carrie Cooper .thank.you.robin.

[@gilsmith3738]

@@carolynjohnson9763 call your Mitsubishi number and look on your bulb and it'll have a number on it if it's is the original bulb. Mitsubishi still has parts and they can also still direct you to certain people that can get the original parts of Mitsubishi. I know A man in Tennessee that works on mine if needed he gets from my bulbs

[@renepoinsette5005]

Excellent advice. Very easy to follow. Thank you, but now I have to decide whether I want to invest $250 in a bulb for a 21 year old tv or treat myself to a new smart tv.🤔

[@latinoshadow13]

First of all I want to take time to thank you for posting these videos. They have been really educational. I have a mitsubishi WD-62626 I paid someone $300 to replace the lamp and they only gave 30 day warranty. My warranty has expired and my tv seems to be dark. I can see the images but the brightness level is almost all the way up but tv looks dark. What can I do?

[@VtecdippinBB6siR]

Yea that's the main issue with these tvs. Idk why this guy is sharing how to change a light bulb. I guess people will do anything for views today.

[@VtecdippinBB6siR]

You need a new ballast.

[@christenetrevino8261]

Thanks for your post it saved us a lot and it was very easy and now our TV works like new.

[@SteveBueche1027]

Thanks TampaTec, fast reply and good advise! I didn't know they had a recall list for these. I'll check around to see if my model qualifies. Love your channel

[@piyux]

Thanks for the video, good job. What are the symptoms you had before replacing the lamp? Mine seems to be the same model and lately shows granny horizontal sections on certain channels, worst with HD channels.

[@angelmartiello1403]

Hey man thanks for the video. I have a Mitsubishi projection from 2009, 60 inch. I took out the lamp and the bulb was blown,Where do you usually get your lamps from?? Website??

[@dwyerbucey8646]

I have a samsung HL72A650 72 in 1080 DLP TV, what price do you think I could get it for now? The DLP lamp just went out and this video was really helpful to get it back up and running.

[@RunnerAdonisThunder]

You rock! I thought I was going to have to throw away my tv! Thank you for helping me fix it. I just needed the hard reset!

[@yvonnegangone-ingui9245]

I have that same TV and my picture is pink with a lot of white dots! I was just wondering do you think the picture lamp will fix that? Thought I'd ask before I go ahead and spend that much money to replace it!

[@angelmartiello1403]

OK I answered my last two comments. If you could, what is the difference between O series and E series and where would I look for that. Please, thanks.

[@sirtokesalot47]

no i dont need a lamp this is how to replace the lamp not how to fix a picture problem

[@dripdio6772]

Sirtokesalot47 probably because the tv needs a new lamp

[@arenovarvideos]

hi great job posting this video it will help a lot of people, would like to ask you maybe you can help me. I have a Samsung dlp hl-r 4667w it have a problem after turn it on it works fine for about a 15 to 30 min after that it lost a picture but still have audio have you ever see something like this if yes can you tell me how to fix? PS. already replace the lamp and still have a same problem thank you.

[@Bibl3Thumper]

Thanks for the video. I have the same tv myself, but after I moved it the picture is a little off on the left side of tv? Do u know how to fix that?

[@angelmartiello1403]

Hey man. So I got my new lamp today for my Mitsubishi projection because the bulb was clearly busted, well I slid the new lamp in put it together and still sound but no picture!!! I figured because the lamp was clearly busted if I changed that it would work, but no go. Do you have another suggestion of what it might be if I'm still not getting a picture and lamp is new???

[@40cal310]

I have bought several lamps off of Amazon for 25 to 50 bucks for later model tvs

[@starballenger5618]

Were they generic? How was the life span for you?

[@justsayin2340]

Picture was dimming so ordered new bulb and installed in bulb housing and then in television after cleaning fans. Worked fine for 1 & 1/2 weeks but now new bulb doesn't light. Had 2 older bulbs that I swapped out to test and they work fine but dim. Recommendation was possibly replacing ballast, but ShopJimmy doesn't stock anymore. Could it be a bad ballast eventhough the older bulbs work, albeit dim? Would hate buying off of Ebay since some parts are just junk and not worth the return shipping. Suggestions?

[@hvacballa4868]

I just bought that very same bulb on ebay for $31.00 with free shipping. it is being shipped from California. Someone actually gave me the Panasonic HDTV/DLP and told me that the bulb would be $125.00, nope $31.00 The guy is a top seller with over 9000 sells so hey it's all about ebay with me. I have bought and received tons of stuff off ebay.

[@starballenger5618]

What is everyone's experience with the cheaper priced lamps nowadays? I keep hearing conflicting stories. I usually try to go with Phillips but this time I ordered a cheap compatible lamp and I'm nervous about installing it when it arrives.

[@inachu]

I totall passed the DLP revoloution and skipped to LED tv's Watching tv on the microship being blown up by the magnifying glasses is a really cool idea.

[@freddyk2082]

Basically to keep a lamp from blowing just place a fan in back of the TV blowing that will help the bulb iver heating easy fix...

[@stupididiotkitty]

do you need the warrenty to call and ask for a new one or just give them the tv model??

[@goldengoddess90]

Hi thx for the videos...I have an 60" Mitsubishi t.v. My volume stopped working first now there is no picture showing it's a steady red light could it be something other than the lamp bulb?

[@VtecdippinBB6siR]

Did you really just waste everyones time that's complaining about a dim picture by pretending like changing the bulb is the main fix for this? Incorrect

[@uleemoore]

I have a toshiba 62hm195. I have some blue ghosting ( shadowing ) going on. I have checked the color wheel and cleaned it. Didn't change anything. . What should be my next check? Thanks for your time!

[@BridgetTNorman-Green]

Where did you buy your lamp bulb and where is a good place that you can order them?

[@BridgetTNorman-Green]

I need lamps for a zenith projection tv with the service number being Z60Z83R8.

[@TampaTec]

Bridget Green try shopjimmy.com or amazon or tigerdirect

[@BridgetTNorman-Green]

Thank you. I want to know if this particular tv is hard to fix or get parts for. I was told that these tv's parts are hard to come by and or have discontinued pieces. My tv looked great when you turned it on but what it would do is go in and out as far as the color is concerned. I know it is not the convergence but now you can not see it but you can hear it. The lamps in the back no longer come on so I am sure that they are the culprits and need to be changed out. Can you give me some insight please. I thank you for the information that you have already given.

[@BridgetTNorman-Green]

I am really thankful that I have someone that knows what I am talking about...do you know what type of lamp would go in this particular tv.

[@erikaaguilar6071]

Hello, I have a Mitsubishi WD-73640. I just replaced the lamp on the tv. It works great at first, then five minutes later while the tv is still on it starts to show different colors. You can here the sound and you can also see the picture on the tv. I turn off the tv and turn it back on and it works fine and then shortly after it will change colors again. I don't know if it is the lamp. The one I bought on eBay was really cheap.

[@pmeriland]

Hey man, I watched one of your videos on how to stop flickering on LCD TV's I was wondering if that would work on a samsung hlp5063wx xaa DLP TV I just changed the bulb about 2 weeks ago. Overall it is a wonderful TV but I really don't want to replace the TV.......Help me please

Hi I bought a new lamp for my Samsung DLP tv and it worked but for some odd reason the lamp cause the ballast to burn. I mean literally melted the prongs on the ballast. So my question is where can I purchase the ballast and why do you think this happened.

How to know when the lamp is finish... I bought a new lamp from eBay for a Samsung DLP TV and it work good for a few hours. After a while TV screen go blank not turning on lamp light blinking when I check there is a crack on the glass of the Lamp. is it the lamp gone bad and if so where can I buy good lamps thank you

I have a Sony KDF-E50A10 Projection TV. I cannot get a picture or sound. The lamp indicator light was blinking red on the front so I ordered another lamp and replaced it; however, it is still not working. The power light blinks green and then red and then goes out. Now I am thinking it might not be the lamp but maybe something else. It is a Wega we purchased in 2005. This is the first problem we have had with this TV. Do you have any suggestions or could I have received another bad lamp?

No one has a trouble shooting video for the testing and the replacement for the ballast. Is there a safe method for troubleshooting this component? The bulb was replaced but the lamp does not come on and I checked the power bard and capacitors and plat switch. .

Is there a way to test a lamp, to see if it is bad or not? My lamp in my Samsung DLP was working fine. I had to replace the color wheel that shattered (only had B/W picture). Now the LED "lamp" light is blinking, and lamp won't light. I don't know if I got a bad color wheel, or what.

[@starballenger5618]

Look inside the lamp. Most of the time when they blow you can see shattered pieces of mercury laying around inside the bulb.

[@angelmartiello1403]

I also did a code check again and this time I saw 66 which from research is usually lamp but I changed lamp and ballast. I did see others having similar problems with coming on sometimes and then not but nothing else really said about it.

A question about my Samsung TV 50 inch screen plasma for about six months ago this is what happened to it I'm not sure if I can send a picture or not I guess not anyways on the right hand of the screen there's about a 2 inch white line with different colors through it can it be fixed?

[@rfschroeder43]

I changed the Same lamp on my Samsung and after a couple of days it started to turn off again and the lights on the front of the TV would flash on and off and there is a clicking on and off sound coming from the lamp. After turning the power off for an hour and turning it back on It would work again. So I removed the lamp again to clean off the fan and noticed that one of the two plugs that the lamp assembly plugs into was melted as was the old lamp plug. Can this plug be easily fived?

[@belartful]

Can you diagnose this symptom? The screen suddenly went blank. Lamp works, color wheel still spinning. The screen is lit, but no menu appears when I push the buttons. DMD board? or Analog board? HLP5674WX/XAA There was no artifacting prior (squares or any strange imagery) all seemed normal. The TV powers up like normal, no blinking lights or anything... in fact, the 3 LEDs in the front are not lit. When I turn it off, the red standby light goes on like it normally does. It's as if the TV hasn't detected any error. Is that how it is with bad DMD boards?
