Check the lamp ballast, it works just like a flourecent light if the ballast is bad it will turn the light off. It comes on a board try searchinng ......ebay or thetvdoctor.comXHRWN5

This TV should work with a video camera fairly easily.

you cleaned the reflector glass, then tried to make the manual adjustment of the color to have good convergence. you can do the adjustment in the menu set up. if can not get with adjustment, their might be a problem in the convergence circuit board.a bad convergence ic or resistor.

Good Day,
To get the Lamp part number TS-CL11OUAA, around $200.00 cost, 1-800-252-5722/ www.jvc.com.
To replace: The Lamp will come intructions. It is very easy to replace if you have a phillips screw driver.

Good Luck, big IRISH.

hi if the tv light is flashing this gives a error code. count how many flashes there are then search on google it may give the possible fault. my guess it could be capacitors hope it helpsregardsshaun

Replace STKs in convergence board.

If you have gotten the lamp out of the tv and checked it and it has broken glass, then you are half way in getting it fixed. Go to pureglare.com for the best price for the lamp with the housing. They warranty the lamp as well. Of course, when you get to the site you must put in the make and model number so have it handy. When you put the lamp back in you must be sure you plug it all the way in. You will feel it plug in and seat firmly. Also the set will not come on until you put the door of the lamp back on as well.

I only have bad news for you. This tv uses an engine assembly. It is impossible to replace the color wheel only. The entire assembly is quite expensive and wouldn't be worth replacing for a tv of that age. (By expensive, I mean roughly $400-$600, before labor). To replace the assembly the tv is basically broken completely down for this repair too and thus very expensive for labor as well.



Sorry for the bad news, but with no warranty you seem to be out of options. Some people choose to just live with the color issues, while saving for a new tv.



Thank you and have a nice day! :)

JUST CHECK THE HUE

seems like the bulb has blown

OK this will sound strange but I got these instruction for my Toshiba and for some reason it seems to be a common problem for rear project TVs. Unplug the TV, remove the bulb housing from the TV and tap it firmly on a counter top ten times. Then reinstall it, plug it in and turn it on. There is some sensor that is monitoring the bulb when it is heating up.

I had a similar problem with my 42 in Philips LCD HDTV.

Here was the problem. My Power Supply Board had several bad capacitors. I opened my TV (warranty was expired of course) and found four bulged capacitors on the PSB. Many major electronics companies Philips/Magnavox, Sony, Panasonic, and others were sold capacitors that failed in 2-5 years instead of 10-20. The capacitors fail prematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in all sorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems.

Here are some options for you.

1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$??????? (Is it under warranty?)

Remember, TVs CONTAIN HIGH VOLTAGE AND CAN KILL YOU! Do this at your own risk.

2. Open your TV and find PSB. (The board that the power cord plugs into) Check for faulty caps. If you find some (bulged or leaking) bad caps replace the entire board. The entire board costs around $250 right now because they are in high demand right now. They can be found online. I would definitely shop around though.

3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill.

Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourself it will save you hundreds.

This may be your problem. If you determine that it might be.

I have a Tip/How TO tutorial on this site that may also help. It gives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this is your board you are in luck. Here is the Link: Fixing the Philips Turns/shuts off on its own problem. I

A new power board for that model TV is $350.95 with free shipping, it can be found here:

Most likely it is bad convergence IC's that are causing this. I would recommend having it looked at by a professional. If you are considering doing it yourself you would need considerable solder experience as well as electronic troubleshooting. You can locate the nearest service center here:
