I have a 3 year old 50" Hl-S5096WX/XAA Samsung DLP, about a week ago the TV just shut off. I have never had a problem before, the color has always been good and picture sharp. I tried letting the TV cool off a bit but then I got the 3 flashing lights. So I replaced the lamp. Still not working. I noticed a whirring sound so I replaced the color wheel. The lamp looked fine when I took it out, the color wheel was obviously damaged. So I tried turning the tv on again,
no whirring sound but still no tv.
It sounds like it's turning in, then after a few seconds there is a click like I'm Turing it off and the tv shuts down. After 3 tries the tv stays off and I get the 3 flashing lights again.
Itried cycling the lamp, I'm just lost. Any ideas?
