Need to reset lamp. replaced lamp and installed new lamp.

Lamp light blinking yellow means lamp door not installed.
Lamp light solid red and TV shut off is lamp error (did not light.)

even technicians who are familiar with those units, before installing new lamps, they use a 'calibration unit' for that or any particular model lamp and calibrate them right after installation. If you don't have the proper calibrator and adjust them right after you installed them, you will get that result. Even experience techs come across that problem if the calibration is not done properly. Also, each lamp for a different color value, has its own calibration/sync values.

The lamp still does not light up after the new lamp installed? Or the lamp is working but the Red lamp still blinking? Reset the lamp timer after the lamp is installed?

you need to reset the lamp timer it is in the tv menu-
check under setup or clocks and timer--it will ask you did you replace the lamp--select yes--youll be all set

a couple of things did you reset the lamp timer? Sometimes if the panel door lamp is open or not closed you will not be able to power up. Have you tried removing the lamp and reseating it? Perhaps the fuse is blown...you will need to remove the cover and look to see. fuse should be located in the area of where you plug the power cord again you will need to remove the power cord.

the projector will not know that u have replaced the lamp!u will have to tell it that a new lamp has been installed
to do this go to the menu & find reset lamp hours option & do a lampo reset.the lamp hours will reset to zero & then the replace lamp message will nt appear!

Exchange the lamp under warranty...
You've tried almost everything else.
It's not that uncommon to experience "infancy failure" with a brand new lamp.

If the problem persists with the replacements replacement then I would suspect the Lamp power supply (Ballast) is failing.

you need to reset your lamp hours timer. as far as i know this can only be done with the service remote

Have you reset the lamp timer after replacing the lamp, if not then do so and see the user manual for that.
