Panasonic PT-52LCX16 DLP TV color problem

I have a Panasonic PT-52LCX16 DLP TV. I have had it less than two years and all of a sudden everything has a blue and yellow color. All the reds are brown or yellow. Does anyone know what the issue is? Thanks.

To reset the lamp, press the minus volume button on the TV and the zero number on the remote control. This will reset your lamp to zero.

This is a very common failure on Projection TV sets.

  • Screen looks 3D
  • Colors don't line up
  • One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
  • Screen is bowed or warped.

My Panasonic pt-52lcx16 lamp light was blinking, then the screen went out completely. I push power button, the green light flashes then the tv shuts off, with no picture or sound. What do I do?
The first step is to install a "known working" lamp or bulb. This fixes 99% of the problems with Panasonic 52LCX16 tvs.

How to reset the hour meter on a panasonic pt-52lcx16
Panasonic Projection TV Lamp Timer Reset
Your lamp will probably last a lot longer than the TV thinks it should. This procedure will reset the lamp timer so you don't have to look at that annoying message every time you turn your tv on. Remember that the "lamp" indicator light on the lower left of the set will stay on until the lamp is actually replaced. I had to buy a replacement lamp to get this information, could not find it anywhere for these model numbers.
Press the volume down button on the projection display and hold down the zero button on the remote control at the same time for more than 5 seconds. When the reset procedure is complete, a message will display that the lamp timer was reset to zero.
This procedure will work for Panasonic models: PT-52LCX66 , PT-56LCX66 , PT-61LCX66 , PT-52LCX16 , PT-56LCX16 , PT-61LCX16

Color wheel bearing can make the noise you describe, and that will also cause color distortions.
