I was just given a Toshiba 50MH66 DLP rear projection TV from my FIL. It was giving him some issues with the screen but it was working when he replaced it with a 4K LED this past winter. I just started trying to use it; sound but no video. Did dome troubleshooting and ordered a generic lamp from Amazon. Swapped it out with no issues but I still have no video. It clicks , I have the blue power light and a blinking yellow bulb indicating a lamp issue. Not sure if fan or "color wheel" (?) is working.

Any ideas what to troubleshoot next?

Thanks!!

YOu should hear the color wheel spin up. The lamp will not light if it does not.

I do not hear anything starting up which tells me the color wheel is not turning. Suggestions on troubleshooting that?

Thank you for the reply!!
