Oh, this set is definately cursed! I have had more problems with this since the day it was new. Sept. 2009 is when the color wheel and ballast were changed out, before that I had to have the board and light engine changed (thankfully that was under warrantee) and since day one I knew I had to have t...

The bearing are both silver. I do have good news though (kinda)...Under closer examination, the base of one of the mounting screw holes (the rear one) broke off. I don't know if this recently happened or was like this from the start, although I think it happened due to the amount of times that I had...

I have been working on that (kinda hoping you were going to suggest checking _______) without success Cannot find what is preventing the wheel from spinning. I am assuming it has to be the wheel dimensions since when I reinstall the old wheel, it works, thereby ruling out a piece of gasket that migh...

ok, took a chance, both on breaking something and getting shocked but thankfully neither happened... I reinstalled the unit with the color wheel plugged in but not installed in it's proper place, just had it laid gently in the back of the unit. I reattached the screws and plugs, held the color wheel...

Question, can I reinstall the unit minus the color wheel, plug the ribbon and other cable into the respective slots, power the tv up and see if the wheel spins? Does the color wheel get grounded to the rest of the housing or will it work separately? Can I hold the housing? I just gotta see if this l...

I was worried about the bad bad luck. I normally run pretty good, guess not with tv repair Is there anyway to test the color wheels to see if A. they are spinning freely when installed and B. if the motor actually spins them? I check the diameters of the wheel after you mentioned it, as far as I can...

http://www.samsungparts.com/part_detail.asp?catalog%5Fname=Parts+and+Accessories&product%5Fid=BP96-01103A&search%5Fmodel=HLR6768W this shows a picture of the gasket I am talking about. It was not on the wheel I took out but came on both new wheels I ordered. This is the first time I am doing...

The gasket that goes around the outer edge I made sure was in place. This new gasket came on both new color wheels and it was not on the old one. I looked to see if it was still in the tv but there is nothing there. I tried installing it with and without it. This new gasket runs down the center of t...

on the broken wheel (which was installed by a shop last year): on the ribbon cable: oerlikon shanghai co. ltd 2008-6-6 us patents 5.868, 482&6, 024, 453 there is a bar cod on the housing: 13112660049944 nothing that i can see on the cable with the 3 wires On the new wheel ribbon cable: P/N: OC-C...

I am looking at both color wheels and they seem identical, the only difference is while the housings look almost the same, te new color wheels came with an additional gasket not found on my original one. L6/BP61-01024A#3 - That is what is stamped on the new wheel Thanks for taking the time to help

total loss right now, I took the 2nd new color wheel out and reinstalled the original broken color wheel and the t.v. fires right up, lamp comes on and I get my same bad picture. Are there more than 1 type of L6 chassis color wheels? Is it possible that the 2 new color wheel I bought are bad? I need...

ok, new color wheel in and still nothing. When I turn the set on, it cycles thru 3 times, LAMP flashing the whole time, them turns off, with all three lights flashing. This is my second color wheel, first one I thought was bad because when I put the original broken wheel in, the lamp comes on and th...

anybody ever get a bad color wheel in? I decided that since my research was turning up nothing for me, that I would put the bad color wheel back in just to see if the lamp would come on...yep...lamp came on, got a picture on the screen. The color wheel look identical, I dont think it is a wrong part...

I just changed the color wheel in my Samsung R67-68W. Everything was working fine until the color wheel came apart a couple days ago. Now that I have installed the new wheel, the t.v. tries to turn on a few times, then just turns off. While it is trying to turn on, the LAMP light flashes. When it tu...
