I was watching my jvc 52z585 tv last night. I heard a pop and the tv turned off. The power light and the lamp light are blinking on and off together. please help me find out what is wrong.. thanks

very easy.
there is 1 thumb screw behind left speaker grill.unscrew it to remove the grill.the lamp is behind that.after changing the lamp,go in to CUST.MENU,scroll down to reset lamp timer. Best price for lamp is pureglare.com. Inspect the lamp for internal glass particles for 100% verification of being bad. Also at the root of the glass stem in the middle look for bubbling of the glass. This is another sign of a bad lamp.

try to re seat the bulb again dont touch it lens or anything unplug ist as u do then reset timer on it ok in menu maby it just not in tight or came loose after 1st heat

Replace your lamp. The pop you heard was the lamp blowing up.

Hi,
It seems lamp/ bulb popped again, check lamp inside tv.
If tv does not show red blinking light then it would be lamp that knocked off, replace lamp in tv to fix its problem, please buy Sony original lamp for good picture in tv.
Let me know if you have additional question.
Thanks.

It sounds lamp in tv got broken as you heard pop sound of it, replace lamp in tv to fix the issue.
Blinking light would be Lamp light at tv front that shows lamp is dead.
Lamp replacement procedure is easy and mentioned in tv user manual.
Thanks.

Hi,

Did you replaced lamp in last 2-3 years in tv? If not, then its lamp that got broken and tv needs new lamp.

3 times blink shows lamp cover is removed or not installed properly on TV.
Please take out lamp inside TV and check, seems its broken as you heard loud pop.
Thanks.

YES YOUR LAMP OR BULB NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

When my lamp died the bulb literally exploded. That may be what you heard. Have you check the lamp? If the lamp is ok, the lamp's ballast or power supply might have blown.

Bad lamp and/or lamp driver. Try replacing the lamp first.
