After colorwheel, now green/pink horizontal lines
Posted: Wed Aug 12, 2009 7:45 am
I have a Samsung HLR-4667 DLP in which I changed out a shattered Colorwheel. After doing so, it almost immediately (after 2nd turn on) displayed green vertical lines. However, they immediately went away after I unplugged the TV from the outlet...only to come back again after several (10 or so) more "normal" TV usages. Since then, they seem to becoming back quicker after doing the 'unplugging trick'.
Overtime, these green lines changed to pink + white lines and can be seen on all inputs (antenna, a.v.,component) EXCEPT hdmi. HDMI looks great yet. If I put up a menu screen on my TV, the lines are BEHIND the menu.
Any suggestions?...What is the likelihood that another part failed right after replacing a different part?
...I heard of talk about removing the JUMPER after replacing a colorwheel, however I don't think that is the problem since on many occasions the TV did work fine. I also heard of "reseting the colorwheel" by going into the service menu and playing around with the settings; but again doubt it, since it did work fine.
Thank you for any and all suggestions!
