I would venture to guess the bulb figment is your issue and the electrical sound is most likely arching (very bad). The cheap replacements won't last. I bought a sylvania build and matched the model number with the one from inside the old bulb housing. Changing out the bulb from the casing is really easy so just return the one you bought and buy the corresponding bul without the case.
Your lucky it lasted 1 month. The population thinks they are receiving inexpensive items from China. Instead they are cheap useless rubbish. You will find that anything from Asia costs half as much and only lasts 1 tenth of the time. DO THE MATHS PEOPLE WE ARE BEING RIPPED OFF. While Asia is getting rich.
these TV's have lots of problems. Don't waste your money on repair. But towards new one or you will be constantly replacing parts.
But anyway sounds like a power supply or light eng problem. If all measurements are good then the chassis needs to be sent to Mitsu for repair (approximately 140 updates to it).
You have either a bad ballast (it powers the lamp) or a bad DMD board. Either one of those will result in a no lamp fire issue. Have a technician look at it...
most likely bad solder connection or cold solder connection which is making contact after the set is moved or vibrated doe's this happen right away
or after the set is warmed up
You were told correctly, you have a bad lamp. When the lamp gets old, the reflector becomes cloudy and instead of reflecting the light, it converts it into heat. As the lamp heats, it draws more power, eventually too much power and the set "recycles" because the lamp is drawing too much power. Replace the lamp, use an original Sony lamp as the aftermarket replacements are known troublemakers. If the bulb fixes the problem (and I know it will because I fix these TV's everyday) be sure to rate this solution. Thanks!
The issue is most likely a bad bulb. If the light that you are getting is flashing red than most likely it is a bad lamp. If this is the case you are looking at probably $200-350 dollars.
