Hello all. New to this forum. Hope you can help me out. I have a several year old WD-52525. I bought it at BestBuy several years ago and did not purchase an extended warranty. About 4 months ago I replaced my second lamp and the TV was running normally up until a few days ago. I turned the TV on as usual but was greeted by a flashing blue screen. There is no sound and no visible signal from the cable. When I switch to any device (say to use the Xbox360) I get the same results--no sound, no picture.

I've included two photos of the problem. The horizontal lines/blob you see flashes at seizure-like speed.

Any ideas what this may be?

Thanks for looking!

Likely the pervasive issues with bad caps in these models. I have seen similar symptoms that could be either in the chassis or in the light engine, however, so get it checked by a Mits ASC.

See this thread for discussion of the issues.

Thanks for the info and link. I have only one Mitsubishi ASC listed in the Milwaukee area. I'll give him a call tomorrow.
