HL-S5087W has become dim in picture

The picture still is on, but very dim. At start up, sometimes the TV will not turn on, and restarts itself before some backlight is seen. I think it is the bulb, however I want to make sure that it isn't the color wheel. Is there a way, by removing components to verify if the color wheel is bad?
