Do the self check.If you unplugged the set, plug it back, turn it on and allow to fail.Press both the Menu and Input (input may be labeled device) buttons on the front of the set and Hold both for at least 5 seconds and release both.Power light will begin to blink a two digit error code like 2 blinks, 2 blinks, pause and repeat it for a total of 5 times.Let me know what error you find and I tell you the meaning and a possible answer.

My mitsubishi 65in projector model # ws65807Just started shutting off it only stays on for few seconds and cuts off. I cant get it to stay on

I doubt it as it was never designed for that kind of input, Component works best on this set and it should have only one HD input for a box marked in the menu as DTV.

If it works with one but not the other the issue is not the set.Are you connected on both boxes to the same kind of input--Component or what?

When it does this go with the Mitsubishi remote to the menu--look for convergence-then advanced= you should get a grid of yellow lines and if see red ones not lined up the set uses one or two convergence chips ( I can look for you).It is very common for the chip/s to act up when cold or after warmup--convergence will seem to jump in and out when that happens---in 100% of the cases I have seen (about 500) replacing the chip/s cures this and for most models I have the instructions for this repair of my own from having repaired hundreds of these sets.

The individual lens have a lug nut that when loosened allows the lens to be turned-----cover red and blue lens and call up the convergence grid---from the rear adjust that lens until the green lines are in good focus(can also do the red in and the blue if needed)You will get no more advantage as the manual focus controls on the splitter block have very limited range.when done carefully tighten the wing nuts on the lens back tight.

First, the set has a hard reset but it will NOT affect convergence which is stored in a separate area of the set.Model indicated has 3 hidden menus---all accessed with the Original remote and a 4 digit code.At your own risk: This is a V17 chassis that was used in 8 models.It has 3 hidden tech menus: With set on:Option menu is 8270 enter---The Option menu reset will return all settings to factory and also will clear any glitches out of the way--it as stated can cause Convergence not to be affected.Circuit adjust menu: (stay out as one wrong move and fatal things can happen is : 8257 enter.Convergence adjust menu: (better than customer and SAVES adjustments made in to the DCU or digital convergence unit in the set.I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU TRY THE OPTION MENU FIRST, IF NEED DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS I CAN LOCATE THEM FOR STEP BY STEP OF THAT.SEE IF IT CLEARS THE MAIN ISSUES UP FIRST---IF YOU TRIED TO ADJUST CONVERGENCE IT MAY NOW BE MESSED UP BUT UNLESS YOU GET THE SET BACK TO WORKING SOMEWHAT NORMAL NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.keep in mind I do this here for free and have worked on hundreds of these Mitsubishi sets.SD TECH------ASK BEFORE YOU LEAP!

DTV is the single HD input for this set.

If you move the convergence too far the set will shut down.Have you done the self check this model does have?

if picture is 3d looking with colors skewed etc it is convergence--tell me as much as possible as if model listed is correct I know it well.

Probably a 6-1 error in self diagnosis. Suspect the optical engine.

somethings wrong with the high voltage circuits and its not allowing the tv to work -to protect you from xrays! I would send it to a professional repair man or splash out and buy an LED or plasma screen. Don't fiddle with it yourself as the voltages concerned are very dangerous
