| Re: Mitsubishi V26 chassis (1st gen DLP) capacitor failures Yes ... and ask me how I know this? My Mits WD-52725 was just returned to me today by the Home Theatre Store (where I originally purchased the TV). This TV is on it's 3rd replacement bulb, the Thermal Sensor has already been replaced and today, the reason for repair was (and I will quote from the repair ticket) "Unit needed new chassis/DM Module". THANK GOODNESS we purchased the extended warranty on this TV when we bought (for $3100) in Jan. 2005. According to the repair ticket, the cost for this latest (chassis) replacement was $1,223.23 (including labor, travel and tax). There is just no excuse for an expensive TV like this to have so many problems. Right now I am thrilled with the picture quality and everything seems to be working fine. BUT I am not dumb enough to think this will be the end of our problems. I understand there is a class action lawsuit pending on these units in California right now. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT THIS TV HAS BEEN. WE WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER MITSUBISHI PRODUCT AGAIN ...... |
