SAMSUNG DLP Turns Off
Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2010 7:30 pm
I have had this DLP TV for about five years. I have replaced the bulb twice and the ballast once.
The first time the TV turned off, the lamps on the front blinked.
The next time it started to turn off by itself, the lamps did not blink.
This time, it's simply turning off, just like the second time; no blinking lamps...nothing.
By immediately turning it back on, it may stay on, it may not.
There have been times when it will stay on for hours on end.
Other times it won't. It may turn off a couple more times and then it'll stop.
The TV itself has a nice picture, but these shut off issues really are getting old.
Does anyone have any suggestions for the fix...this time?
