Damn Samsung won't turn on + wierd buzzing noise
Posted: Sat Sep 05, 2009 8:18 pm
i'm pissed. I may have wasted money on a new lamp
model number: HLR4667W
bought it back in Oct 2005.
Now heres the deal, TV became hazy blurry with purple hues as soon as a loud buzzing sound started coming from the back. The buzzing noise is violent and loud, sounds like a pair of trimmers or clippers going to work back there. I turn the tv off and i power the tv back on but this time I don't get any video or audio but I still get the hellacious buzzing noise. I figure it had something to do with the lamp, because I replaced one back in 2007 and it worked fine. Figured it was the same issue so I purchase a new lamp, installed the damn thing today and I still get the buzzing noise with no audio or video, and to turn it off, I have to unplug it. I can't turn it off any other way.
I want to know if anyone with the same model as I do has experienced the same problem and if they resolved the issue.
Could be the color wheel, could be the fan, I want to know what it is.
Everytime I power up the tv, it sounds and feels like there's a bomb in there ready to explode because the buzzing/grinding is so violent (the back cover to the dlp set actually vibrates). And I'm pissed off that I wasted money on a new lamp when it could have gone towards the right part.
Damn you samsung.
