Black Screen with White Randomized Pixels

My Mitsubishi WD-52525 DLP worked fine for 4 years...now, one day the screen is black with white pixels flashing. I hear sound on all devices...I can also see the device menu, but none of the devices show picture.

Any help?

    I have the same problem. I just had the lamp replaced a month ago and all was fine until last night. I saw some flickering on the screen now not only can I not see a picture but only flickering, but all other input devices like dvd player and xbox have skewed pictures. Any suggestions?

    Please email me back at [email protected].

Not sure...but the inputs (and related circuitry) on Mits are notorious for failing due to weak components. Test to be sure that all inputs are dead? If so...this may not be an easy fix.

Bad FMT (Formatter) circuit board. No longer available for purchase from Mitsubishi.

The electrical chassis will need to be sent to Mitsubishi for rebuild.

Wait time: 4-8 weeks
Cost (including labor to uninstall it and reinstall it: $800 +)

How do I fix pixels on my tv screen

Usually solved by replacing the DLP chip (Google it) they cost around 180. If you have a couple hundred more I'd just go buy a Samsung LCD smart tv.

Repair dead pixels?

Dead pixels can not be repaired.
The model# WD-52525 you provided is for a DLP TV.
If you are seeing white dots on the screen it is due to a bad DMD chip or light engine. Unfortunately, it is not a cheap fix.

Good luck

White dots on the right side of the screen

these are called dead pixels if your television is under warranty you should replace it with new one cause dead pixels generated new ones until it will fill up your screen completely.

Sir, its white small dots on complete screen, like sky with stars,

Place a white piece of paper about 1000mm in front of the screen and focus the image sharply.
Choose menu, image, advanced then select color manager.
go through the color options and check if some pixels are permanently on or off (ie small dots or black) instead of a uniform colour on the screen.

The DLP chip is most likely the faulty component

I have a Mitsubishi WD Y-657 that started out with a single white dot. Now there are over 50. This all happend in a week. I believe they are dead pixels. ?? What to do?

Dead pixels are a problem with LCD screens. You have a DLP set, so this is not possible. I unfortunately don't know anything else about this problem.

Little green and white boxes on the screen

Hi,Yes your problem sounds like the DMD board.This is how it works: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/dlp1.htm Basically the light of the lamp goes through a tunnel that carries a color wheel(rotating disc with a gamma of colors that creates the colors on your tv)then the light of the lamp goes through the DMD board which is a chip composed of around 2 million pixels that creates the images and colors.When it starts to fail it will create black bars,pixelation,color distortion or white dots on screens.Found it right here http://www.discount-merchant.com/MITSUBISHI-RMD62-939P977A20-Light-Engine-p/1138084.htm?Click=48173 Have a blessed one!
