AKAI PT50DL14X\SMS - LAMP INDICATOR (GREEN)

Linda .....no its not the lamp thats causing the whirring/buzzing sound but the colour wheel, its housed in the light engine you will need to replace the whole light engine cos the inbuilt colour wheel is worn out this causes the buzz hence the lamp may not light up or u may have shut downs flickers on the pix or color issues

Hi,
Please replace lamp in tv to solve the problem.
This has been discussed in chat session a while ago and you found broken lamp in tv.
Thanks.

Check the lamp and color wheel.

Hi,normally when the 3 led lights show up they indicate its time to replace the lamp.The lamp that is inside your tv normally last around 3000 hrs 1-2 yrs .Pay attention to any weird sounds which could indicate another problem.

Replace the lamp.

was the lamp blown if it was blown you could be hearing the ballast
if the lamp was not blown and the new one did not fix it the red light indicates the door there is a little switch when you put the door back on if you look at it it may need to be adjusted so it will connect with the door if that is not it you could have a fan that is not turn if it is making a real loud constant humming noise while it trying to fire the lamp you probably have a bad color wheel

I think i have the solution to your problem,
I think that the lamp has gone out in your tv. You should try changing it out. I work with many tv's with DLP's and it almost always is the lamp. YOu can order it online, there is a slot on the side of the tv were you can change it out through there, the lamp should have a number on it. And its pretty simple to do. So there you go..and I could have gotten you a better deal on your Tv.

THE END

I was told by the repair service to unplug the power cord for about 5min. This resets the internal computer. I think this helps but does not cure the cause. Good luck.

I have a KDF60XS955. When I power it on, the fan comes on, the standby light flashes green several times, the lamp comes on and the standby light goes to solid green. This lasts for less than 5 seconds then the lamp goes out, followed by ~30 green standby flashes, the lamp coming on with the solid green standby light for about 5 seconds then shuts off the lamp again. I can hear/feel the fan running the enitre time. This cycle continues endlessly. Please help!
