The point of this thread was not to generate such rants. The fact is that we sold dozens of these and only a few have had problems. Mitsubishi is, for now, still one of the better products to have. The point is to better deal with the problems that do exist.

Now if you want to discuss your particular issues, and learn more about what might be going on with your set, I will be happy to do so, but let's stick to facts rather than emotional rants.
Sorry about the rant .... needless to say, I am EXTREMELY frustrated. Would/can you believe that since I posted my response to your original post the TV has already malfunctioned? I now have the flashing green timer light of death again. I have unplugged the TV from the wall for 30 minutes, then plugged it back in. The timer light immediately starts flashing and I am unable to turn the TV on. I have already notified the service/warranty folks. When I mentioned your post to them concerning the Jamicon capicitors possibly being defective, they brushed me off and said their course of action is to order yet another new chassis Board from Mitsubishi. In other words, they do not attempt to replace the capacitors .... rather their solution is to replace the whole (defective) Board with another whole new board? I am at my wits end with this. Any advice you might provide will be appreciated.
