My Samsung 50" DLP HDTV keeps humming when the DLP lamp comes on.

I have a Samsung HLR5067WX 50" DLP HDTV that is 3 years old. For the past two days, my tv has been humming everytime it is turned on and then stops when it is turned off. The DLP lamp has been replaced about a year ago and besides the humming noise, there is nothing wrong with the tv. The HD picture, sound and everything else works perfectly fine. Please help so I don't have to keep turning my tv up to 10 to drown out the humming noise.

Hi, you have one of two problems, either the color wheel is going or one of the cooling fans are going, the color wheels are a very common problem in samsung dlp`s, sorry I can`t nail it to a specific part but I`d bet it`s the color wheel as they are notorious for failing in samsungs, video-tek

Flickering screen, loud buzzing sound, self boot down.
Color wheel bad. Makes rumbling sound. Bad bearings. Has to spin about 10,000 RPMs and sync to DLP chip. Here: https://www.encompassparts.com/webwiz/wwiz.asp?wwizmstr=WEB.SEE&partnumber=5933777&smodel=HLR5067WX/XAA

I have an HLR5057WAX DLP Samsung tv and my picture freezes often and the tv will sometimes power off. When it freezes it will stay that way for about a minute and usually turn back to normal. Lately I have...
The lamp is usually your first replacement, but a freeze in picture may have to do with the video board or the DMD board. Try the lamp first and see if that fixes it--because you'll need a new one anyway if you're going to keep the television. Make sure to get an OEM Philips lamp for your Sammy. Buy from an authorized distributor.

The more i use my samsung flat screen tv the more white spots come on the screen. What do you think is the problem?
The DLP chip needs to be replaced. Samsung is aware of this problem and will probably cover the cost of part and labor. call 1-800-samsung for nearest service center. I replaced the chip on a 3 year old machine yesterday and Samsung covered all costs.

Lamp won't come on and loud rattle in back of tv
Probably a defective color wheel. The bearings are bad or perhaps the wheel itself is broken.
