I have a RCA HD44LPW62 DLP, MY PROBLEM IS WHEN I TURN ON THE TV IT STAYS ON FOR ABOUT A MIN THEN TURNS OFF, I TURN IT BACK ON AND THE SAME THING?
IS THIS A OVERHEATING ISSUE OR BALLAST ISSUE? THANKS

Ed Submitted on 2008/05/07 at 8:28pm I just ‘inherited’ the HD50LPW151, and the noise drives me crazy; although the wife and kids say they can tune it out. I don’t think it’s the colour wheel. When you turn off the set, and after the picture fades from blue to off, the fan is still spinning, and tha...

I believe my lamp went out on my 56″ JVC DLP model number HD-56G787. Do you have directions on how to replace it? I heard a pop, then crackle and now there is no picture. I never got a warning message…is that normal?

Thanks!

If you replace the DLP lamp out of your Zenith or LG, you will need to reset the counter...otherwise you may get an annoying reminder every few days if you're surpassed the predetermined hour mark. To Reset: Ensure the TV is powered on. 1) Press and HOLD the MENU button on the TV 2) Press and HOLD t...
