   WOW, I just ordered the lamp and housing from from the sponsor of this video. I sure hope all I have to do is pop the old housing out (with the lamp mounted already) and just pop the new one in.

   Great video by the way.

   Unfortunately these TVs can have other problems besides the lamp. I could better help you if I had some more information, but I will do my best. It could be the ballast. If you here a buzzing sound or repeated clicking noise that’s probably the problem. If there was any discoloration in the picture before it went out it wouldn’t be a lamp issue. Also, make sure the lamp door and all the panels you remove get put back, otherwise the lamp will not ignite.

   Hey FixYourDLPcom, I have a question. The other night I was watching the tv without any problems, I go to turn it on and it just cycle red and blue lights and ends up with a red light on lamp. I Changed the lamp and its still cycling and I can hear the balast making the buzzing noise trying to turn on every so often. Do you have any solutions, I’m stumped.

   Thanks from here too. I didn’t read far enough at first and didn’t put the panel back on and thought I blew the bulb or something when it wouldn’t come on. Feel much better now.
