People, search before posting stuff like this, you're just wasting bandwidth!

HunterZ, there is a good article on the FixYourDLP.com blog about the lamp only replacement for the TY-LA1000. You got to be careful cuz some sites sell the lamp only without the connector and that means you have to cut and jimmy rig the thing together...sounds like a fire and lawsuit waiting to hap...

Has anyone seen this... The national law firm of Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, is investigating consumer complaints concerning Toshiba DLP® high definition television sets. According to press reports, consumers have submitted complaints that the lamps installed in the DLP televisions burn...

Dude, welcome to the Internet..with a name like WesternDigital, you would thing he would have a clue! How did you register for this forum?!!??!

Buddies got a JVC Projection TV and he swears he can improve the picture by getting into the service menu...anyone know how we can access it?

Even Costco now only has a 90 day warranty. I'm gonna by ...

WOW, I didn't see this post...Who's Discount-Merchant.com ? I don't think their an authorized Vizio parts distributor. Have you bought anything from them?

I've got a VIZIO P50HDM and the tech says this board is the problem. He also says there is a 6 week lead time from the manufacture. Anyone know where I can get a replacement part? Can the part itself be repaired? Why the heck is it on backorder for so long?!?!?!
