I've searched and searched for a solution... I need help.
Everything sounds/acts normal when turning the TV on (chime,colorwheel,ballast,lamp)
I just don't have a picture; the Lamp is on but screen is blank with no sound.
The TV is locked and the Green Lamp light is flashing.
Sometimes it will display stationary white dots in a horizontal line across the screen.
The color wheel did not look like it was rotating very fast so I installed a new one... didn't work.
First sign something was wrong - A few minutes after watching the picture went blank (lamp still lit) but TV still had sound.
The TV failed to restart on first attempt so I cycled the plug tried again and it started on it's second self attempt. Worked until we turned it off a few hours later. TV will not turn back on.
The three LED indicators on the Digital board are lit.
Can this be a bad lamp even if it's lit?
Thanks for your help.
