I replaced the bulb and then the ballast, now my picture kind of flows in the colors from reds to pink/flesh on skin and the blue and greens kind of blend and go back and forth. When I did the ballast I removed the color wheel first as when I originally replaced my bulb the picture still didnt work, so then I inspected the color wheel as advised and found nothing wrong, than replaced my ballast. What would make the color wheel do that when it worked perfectly prior to my inspection? Could I have not got the ribbon wire in correctly, or maybe touched the wheel with my finger and it needs cleaning?
HELP!!!!!
Thanks,
Mike

ETA, Would the color wheel cause the above problem or are my troubles/problems deeper? I cant figure it out since the picture was perfect UNTIL the bulb went out, now I'm having all sorts of new problems?

Is the menu behaving the same way?

[mstennes]

As in, when its on the menu screen do the colors fade, like when your watching it on a show?

ETA, Yes it does, it does it on the menu screen, when there is no input and you see the ant races, as well as when your actually watching tv.
Thanks

//Color Wheel Symptoms

If I recall well the color wheel has two cables which are orange and white (I think it is connected to the color wheel housing) so probably one cable wasn't plugged correctly or it wasn't plugged, both cables go attached to the DMD board, but if they were plugged correctly then maybe the color wheel isn't spinning at the right speed causing this problem. These are the most common symptoms of a defective color wheel:

You'll hear winding, whirling or screeching noise
You'll feel vibrations in the TV
Picture shows poor color, under saturated or over saturated
Picture is in black & white
Picture is intermittently in color and black & white
The picture is showing the wrong color like the skin tones are pink or green

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, its not making any noises it didnt before I tore into it, so I didnt get the wires that slide (copper colored) in good enough or I did something to it when I removed it to check for anything wrong with it.

[Angel]

Could you please attach some pictures? That would help us a lot.

[mstennes]

Hmmmmmm lets try this, pictures were almost impossable, but lets try a video.

Access the service menu (In Standby mode, press "Mute", 1, 8, 2, "Power")

Select DDP1011 → TEST PATTERN → Press the right arrow key. Test all of the color patterns, if one or more of these patterns are affected by your problem the culprit is the DMD board.

[mstennes]

Yep, they are all affected. Which DMD board do I need? My set is a Samsung, HL67A510J1F. How can so many things go wrong at once? My bulb went out first, then upon installing a new buld, I discovered my ballast was out, at least nothing happenedd until I installed a new ballast and a second bulb, now my DMD board? What next??????

I wish I have an answer for your questions, but unfortunetely there is no way to know it. Samsung DLPs are unpredictable. Take a look at other threads and you'll see.

About the part number, I searched for it by your model, but I didn't find anything, I recommend you to take the board out so you can take the part number written on it.

So which is the DMD board or where is it?

[Angel]

Use this color wheel replacement guide: http://guides.fixyourdlp.com/samsung/bp96-01579a.php, follow the steps until you have the light engine out, the DMD is the board in the light engine.

Hope this helps.

[mstennes]

Which picture is the DMD board? 13 down 3 to the right? On the replace your color wheel guide.

[Angel]

15 down 1 right, the board at the bottom of the light engine.

Thanks!

ETA, Now I'm wondering if maybe I didnt get everything plugged in good enough, the ribbon wire was kind of ddifferent without clips and I was worried about breaking it.

[mstennes]

Could the color wheel go bad when I took it apart? All conections are good and clean. Could any plugs be in the wrong spot?
