The model you have selected should have a self check feature: when turns off and the green power light goes off:

ON THE FRONT OF THE SET PRESS AND HOLD BOTH MENU AND INPUT together for at least 5 seconds and then release both buttons.

The power light should blink a two digit error code: for example: 2 blinks, a pause and 2 blinks--it will repeat the code about 10 times.

error codes for this set:

1, then 2 no error detected
2, then 1 X-ray protection
2, then 2 short protection
2, then 3 deflection circuit problem
2, then 4 vertical deflection problem


2, then 2 is the most common and easiest to fix.

Let me know what you find and if 2,2 I have detailed instructions for repairing that kind of trouble.

I am here to help people.

    model number is WS55809?

  • Anonymous Oct 29, 2009

    It does have the self check feature. Unplug the set for a few minutes and plug it back in.
    Turn the set on and when the power light goes off press on the front of the TV the menu and Input buttons for 5 seconds or longer and release both.

    This model has this self check--please try again. YOU HAVE TO PRESS BOTH BUTTONS ON THE FRONT OF THE TV--NOT THE REMOTE.

Mitsubishi big screen HD 1080 series model WS-55809. it switched off one day. and when i turn it back on it switches right back off. red light in front. what part do i need to fix it/

That model does not have a red light---Green.

If set powers up for a few seconds (green power light) and goes out do the self check the model indicated has:

On front of set (not with remote) press and hold both the input and menu buttons for at least 5 seconds and release both.

Green power light will blink a two digit error code like 2 blinks, 2 blinks a pause and repeat it several times.

Let me know what error code you find (if you have unplugged the set that will clear all errors and you have to plug it in and try to turn set on again---when it fails do the self check)

Tv wont turn on

hold the menu and input/device buttons for 5 seconds and it will blink you a 2 digit code
1-2 normal operation
2-3 i believe is short circuit protection = probably a convergence failure
here is a link to my tutorial

Television will not cut on

Do the self check this set has: when the power light goes on and then off: ON the front of the set push and hold both the menu and input buttons at the same time and hold them for at least 5 seconds.

The power light should blink a two digit error code; 2, pause and 2 is the most common. It will repeat the code about 5 times and to get it to repeat you would have to unplug the set and try to turn it on again etc.

Let me know what code you find and I will tell you what it means.

Mitsu

Double check all the blue 3.9 ohm blue resistors in front of the two STK-392-570 CHIPS. If even one is bad--they can be checked like checking a fuse---the set will not adjust in some way. See other information......

If the set still turns on the protect fuses are good. It is also possible if the resistors are good you may have got a new chip that is bad--this does not happen very often but it can happen. When you see the other information let me know if you have questions.

If this has helped you rate this solution as I do this here for Free.

Mitsubishi WS-55909 dm board repair

The DM is fine if the led isnt blinking. Your set is going into protective shutdown. Try pressing the menu and the device/input buttons on the set both in together for 5 seconds to see if the set will blink a series of blinks pause then blink another series of blinks. Such as 2 blinks pause then 2 blinks, Then let me know what the blinks were and I will assist you with whats wrong
