HLP6163WX/XAA ... Is this the color wheel?

Post by mkaram » Tue Sep 07, 2010 5:37 am

Hi all,
I stumbled on this site and I love it so far. What a great resource!

Anyhow, I have this HLP6163WX / XAA and I think it has a bad color wheel.

I turned it on, the colors were flickering and incorrect so I turned it off.
I turned it back on:
The "lamp" light blinks.
I hear the "click"
I hear the "energizing" sound
then I here a whirr/buzz.... I get sound but no picture at all. I can feel the chassis vibrating.
The whir/buzz is loud, then it stops, then it starts again (like the set is retrying)
After three tries with the whir/buzz all three lights blink and I have to unplug it to get it to stop blinking.

If I plug it back in, it automatically attempts to turn itself on.
If I unplug it while the whir/buzz sound is happening I *think* hear a "spinning down" noise.

So I'm pretty sure this is the color wheel but I want to make sure I order the right part.
The color wheel prevents the lamp from turning on entirely?

While I have it taken apart I also intend to clean the mirror assembly. Is there anything else I should do while it's open?

Thanks in advance for all your help!!
