When you put the old lamp back in did the picture look OK? If so why did you replace to begin with? Yes, there are some poorly manufactured lamps out there, where did you obtain the replacement? Was it true OEM?

Two white dots appeared on screen- one blinks and one does not. Picture is currently good

DLP/DMD chip is failing. you need a new DLP chip for that model TV. the pixels are sticking. it will get worse as time progresses.

Mitsubishi WD-62526 turns on-n-off

I would bet the illumination lamp has reached the end of it's life (~$40 online). Should be easy to replace. Also possible the ventilation vents need cleaning, which could cause the lamp to overheat and turn off.

My picture blinks every few minutes, three or four times and then is fine for a few minutes before it does it again

It sounds that the main power supply regulator's output voltage varies more than normal. Being a 3D TV, it will be best to contact the authorized service centre for Mitsubishi. The TV have very complicated circuit inside, and it will be risky to open it or try to do anything with its boards. Might make the TV irreparable. If you wish to get some details, check this link. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ Selecting the view option, either to Mosaic / Timeslide / Flipcard, can be selected by the drop-down list, at the top left of the display window, will make surf easy. You can also do a search, by type in the brand name / model number / IC used, in the search box at the top right of the display window.
