Wd-y65 dlp, have sound, no picture, tv shuts down after about 30 seconds. tryed tv reset 3 times,did nothing

Mitsubishi rear projection DLP keeps turning off and shutting down. The red light then turns on for a while and then turns off. TV can be turned on again and works fine until a random shutdown occurs again. No fault codes are stored. No blink codes. No airflow warning messages. The original thermal sensor was replaced 8-1/2 years ago. Fans are completely clean and running smoothly. I fixed this problem by replacing the 8.5-year-old thermal sensor. The problem is gone. Mitsubishi thermal sensor part number 299P313010A. Manufacturer part number YS11A95B-C6. Do not use the connector plug. Strip the wires, and hard wire and solder the 2 connections. This might also apply to these models: WD-52631, WD-57731, WD-57732, WD-65732, WD-57831, WD-65831, WD-Y57, WD-Y65

check to see if with a rear audio/video input you have sound (DVD etc)

look in menu speakers are not set to off or external

try the reset: Menu 1,2,3, enter.

Lamp is usually customer replaceable and instructions are in owner manual.

I would to begin with (set unplugged) get at the lamp to inspect it--if shattered inside look for a replacement.

Google the model number with "lamp" to see what is available.

You Tube has video instructions for replacing lamps on most brands and models as well---not have to read just look.

Check the projector lamp.

The first would be excessive dust causing inadequate airflow through the lamp cage. Cleaning the filter may resolve the problem.

It could also be that one, or both, of the temperature sensors could be defective. This is a known problem to the extent that Mitsubishi extended the warranty an extra two years on your model and similar models with the same design.

Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America, Inc (MDEA) 2006 DLP® Projection Televisions Models: WD-52631, WD-57731, WD-65731, WD-Y57, WD-Y65, WD-57732, WD- 65732, WD-57831, WD-65831.
As part of our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, MDEA is announcing an extension of the warranty coverage to replace the thermal sensor for the above referenced models. For a period of two additional years beyond the one year limited warranty, MDEA will cover the cost of the thermal sensor (parts and labor) at no charge. All other terms of the MDEA limited warranty will continue to apply.

If the set is only 3 1/2 months old, you should still have warranty coverage. Opening up the unit will void the warranty, so don't open up the set. Call for warranty service. In all probability, the air flow sensor is defective. The message you are seeing is a result of the air flow not being detected or not sufficient. In any case, this is a covered problem and should cost you nothing to fix.

DLP Projection tv, Models WD-57731, The tv powers on but the screen remains black, the audio comes on but after approximately 30-40 seconds,the audio starts to skip and then the entire tv system shuts down. I reset it a few times but that doesn't change the problem

have you cleaned the air filter located on the side of the set? If that doesnt work the thermal sensor will need replacing.
