Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Well hi everyone.
I seem to be having a problem with my 65733. I press the reset button, and wait for it to reset. Then when I press the power button for the tv I can hear one click and a slight whine for about 5 seconds then later the lamp, status, and timer light will flash really quick and the status light will blink red. It has been blinking red all day when I was at work. The screen will not even turn on. I just replaced a bulb from a authorized dealer.
I would like to attempt to fix this problem myself if It is not too hard of a task to tackle.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi cuseikan.
Did you close the lamp door? It has a switch that needs to be pressed in order to turn ON the TV.

And my t.v went out one night when I was watching it. It just turned off and the status indicator started blinking red.

Did you reset the lamp timer?
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Have you tried to unplug the TV, wait a minute, plug it back and try turning it ON again?
In mitsubishi's TVs after replacing the lamp and turning the unit back ON there should had been a message asking you if you replaced the lamp? Press ENT(er) for Yes or CANCEL for No.

Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
So, you replaced the lamp after this problem started?
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Maybe is a problem with the fan that is in charge of cooling the lamp, your TV might has a Temperature sensor that turns the TV off in case of overheating. Check your fans for dust.
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
So I cleaned off all the dust. And still nothing.
I notice that when I press the reset button and attempt to turn on my tv that the lamp comes on. It lights up for a few seconds but does not turn on the screen. I can see the light from the lamps vent.

Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Do you hear just one click? It might be your ballast that can only reach the minimum voltage needed to turn the lamp ON for a few seconds and not enough to turn ON the screen.
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Then it's most probably a ballast issue.
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
Re: Mitsubishi WD-65733 help.
D-M means discount-merchant.com, they receive new parts once a week, so your ballast might be in-stock soon. Replacing it is not a big deal if you're handy, just a few screws and two connectors. You just need to be very careful of not to damage any other components while extracting the ballast from your TV.
