No picture on my 62" DLP Mitsubishi

I have had all major parts replaced over the past year. Just the other day the set took what seemed like 5 minutes to get the picture...last night no picture at all and same today. I turned the TV power source off and after an hour restarted. Now it shows I have a red light at the lamp diod. The lamp was replaced once about a year ago. I imagine the problem is with the lamp but shouldn't a new lamp last a few years? (If it is a lamp) This TV is used no more than 20 hours a week.

I am not sure what the problem is, but usually if a lamp is bad, the other 2 lamps will still function. Since you are getting no picture at all, I am thinking it is a circuit board problem. TV electronics are expected to last 3-5 years. After that, many components will start to go out one by one. If you have your tv repaired, I would replace the whole circuit boards instead of just the bad component. The power board is the #1 board I would replace 1st. This is the most stressed board and will cause most of your tv problems.

New bulb/TV still shuts down

Its far more likely the result of the power pwb capacitors that have failed. As the 34 code will appear if the capacitors fail on the Power PWB. You can get the V26 DLP Power repair kit at the following link.with free instructions

Picture getting darker over the years

It could be your Light Engine. However, I would first check a few things:

1. Make sure your Low Power/Lamp settings are adjusted so that they meet your brightness needs.

2. Make sure you used a Mitsubishi original lamp, as generics get chewed through fast and hard.

3. Try another lamp; sometimes you can get a bad one in the bunch.

All those things don't work, consider a Light Engine ($400 + for parts; $300+ for labor)

Mitsubishi 65" DLP HDTV, Status light is red, no picture

Check your lamp; it may have blown. Sound, no picture and a red light are classis signs a lamp has failed.

Mitsubishi rear projection tv color problem

I'm going to guess that this unit is a DLP projection set and that the lamp is not new. Try a new lamp. The heat of the lamp will char over time. If not the lamp, some of the internal filters in the light engine might be getting effected by heat and require replacement.

Keep us posted.
