20 Most Recent Mitsubishi WS-65315 65" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television - Page 3 Questions & Answers

I had a similar problem with my 42 in Philips LCD HDTV.

Here was the problem. My Power Supply Board had several bad capacitors. I opened my TV (warranty was expired of course) and found four bulged capacitors on the PSB. Many major electronics companies Philips/Magnavox, Sony, Panasonic, and others were sold capacitors that failed in 2-5 years instead of 10-20. The capacitors fail prematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in all sorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems.

Here are some options for you.

1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$??????? (Is it under warranty?)

2. Open your TV and find PSB. (The board that the power cord plugs into) Check for faulty caps. If you find some (bulged or leaking) bad caps replace the entire board. The entire board costs around $250 right now because they are in high demand right now. They can be found at tv-part.com but supplies are limited. I would definitely shop around though.

3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill.

Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourself it will save you hundreds.

This may be your problem. If you determine that it might be.

I have a Tip/How TO tutorial on this site that may also help. It gives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this is your board you are in luck. It's called: Fixing the Philips Turns/shuts off on its own problem. I'm working on uploading pictures to help guide people though the process as well. Let me know if I can do anything to help.

Hope this helps and if it does please rate it accordingly. Good luck.

Hello.
Most likely convergence circuit is out. Two convergence amps have to be replaced as well as some PICO fuses that already open. I would strongly recommend to let professional do this repair, without experience you can damage TV and make it unrepairable.
It should cost you around $300 to fix it at your home.
Regards.

The TV probably has the -27 volt fuse blown. This fuse will blow when your convergence amp IC's have gone bad (STK-392-250)
Call a good TV Tech.

Hi,

Unplug the unit for few minutes, say 15 minutes and then turn it ON. You might have to do this procedure a couple of times, to see if that helps. If not then,

Follow the steps below to reset system defaults to factory settings:
1. Press the MENU button followed by number buttons 1,2,and 3 on
the remote control.
Result: The Reset System Default menu screen is activated.
2. Press the ENTER button on the remote control.
Result: The settings reset to factory defaults.
3. Press HOME or MENU on the remote control to return to the HOME
or MENU screen.
IMPORTANT: This function is not recommended unless it is mandatory
to reset system defaults to factory settings. This operation CANNOT
be undone and all customs settings will be erased.

Let me know.so that we could proceed.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Let me make sure that I understood your question. You want to watch the signal coming from your antenna on your tv in HD? Please clarify the info so that I can tell you how to proceed.

is the button pysically broke... the unit does have a keyboard lockout feature press and hold menu for 10 seconds... maybe if not then the power button will need repair or a universal remote may be used

ANY mitsubishi remote will work, universal remotes will not do the job.

Is color skewed and or 3 d looking?

The more you tell me the better I can help you.

try to go to the ps3 settings then go to video output settings , then go to hdmi and it should go black for a min. i didnt think it was working for mine then i unpluged it and there was a big diffrence but it should work

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired.

Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony,Samsung, JVC, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Akai, Pioneer, Hitachi, Zenith, and others. You can get a convergenece repair kit wiith instructions from the links below.

Here are some of the most common problems with these sets...

Problem #1) Convergence

Yours may have one or more of the following symptoms

• Screen Looks 3-D
• Colors wont align
• Screen may look distorted or warped
• No Audio/Video - makes a chirping sound.

Are you saying the power light blinks constantly and does not stop blinking?

The model you have indicated does not flash light three times on its own.

Confirm model number and I will try to help you--WS65315 is the correct model number?

The more you tell me the better I am able to help you.

Looking at same problem. No answer yet. Must be device driver (at least for me). I can see the pre-Windows boot up sequence, but frags at Windows. Looking for device driver.

i have a mitsubishi 1080 series WS-65315 model i power it on and led light turns off after 2 seconds

9 times out fo ten here you got a power supply issue. This could be any component in the powersupply as in fuses, Capacitors, Relays , ETC list goes on and on but in order to get a exact problem diagnosis the TV will need to be looked at by a professional locally.

I think you are asking about lamp replacement in DLP TV.
Usually lamp replacement procedure has written in related user manual of TV, let me know exact model number of TV to find out user manual copy for you, if required.
Thanks.

NO> If your TV supports and have HDMI connections and your HD receiver has an HDMI output then you should have no problem displaying Video. Just make sure you change the input signal of your television to HDMI input. After looking at the spec's of this model these are the following inputs you have. your best picture quaity would be to use componet cables instead, which can show full screen 1080i format, your television does not show at 1080p whis is what HDMI is known for.
Connectors
Rear Input Connectors S-Video x 2 - Component x 3 - Composite x 2 - DVI x 1 - RF x 2 - 1 x RS-232C - Audio (RCA) x 6

Front Input Connectors S-Video x 1 - Composite x 1 - Audio (RCA) x 1

Rear Output Connectors Composite x 1 - Audio (RCA) x 1 - RF x 1

Another good option is use to use a DVI to HMDI connector and hook it up this way. But note: you will have to use audio cables for the DVI input.
