Lamp failure in WD-52525

plzzz keep distance between tv and lamp....hav a nice day

push the menu and device buttons on the front of the set both in together and hold for 6 seconds and see what two digit error codes blinks. It will most likely blink a 3 pause then 4 and then repeat the sequence indicating a 34 error for lamp abnormality which is almost always caused by faile capacitors on the Power pwb.

We have runn in to this with this type lamp, And we are a service center so we do hundreds of these. We too have had bad lamps straight from the box so best guess would to take the lamp back Mitshubishi will warenty the lamp for 90 days so act fast

If it is Mitsubishi WD-52525 DLP TV then it sounds weak lamp problem in TV and TV needs lamp replacement.
How old is this TV and did you replaced lamp recently?
Lamp replacement is written in user manual of TV and it is easy work.
Please buy Mitsubishi original lamp for TV safety.
Thanks.

that means your lamp it is getting to the end of its life.
sometimes even if the lamp still good the TV will send you that message because that timer is closed to 5000 hours

What you can do is open the lamp door, closed again and the tv will ask you if you replaced it the lamp, and just say yes and that sign will go away

or just simple replace the lamp. 915P020010

You have to take the TV apart. Pull the electrical chassis out and look for bad electrolytic caps on the boards. The red LED probably means the 2 - 3300UF caps on the power supply board are bad. You can tell if they are bad by the fact that their tops are puffed up and they may or may not be leaking brown fluid. Compare them against the other caps on the boards and you will see how they have flat tops.

BUT before you take the TV apart you can check the error codes by pushing "menu" and "Device" at the same time and holding for about 10 seconds. The status light will blink two numbers. ex. one flash pause two flashes is 12 Error Code Probable Cause

12 No error detected
22 Recovery from momentary Reset
32 Lamp Cover open
33 Air Filter Cover open
34 Lamp abnormality
35 Chassis Fan failure
36 Exhaust (Back Cover) or Lamp Ballast Fan failure
37 Engine (DMD or Lamp) Fan failure
38 Excess Lamp Temperature
39 Excess DMD Temperature
41 Short Detected
44 DVI Cable (between Chassis and Engine) disconnected

You can buy replacement caps from Mouser electronics online. There are plenty of solutions detailing how to do this already posted.

you have mention that after 10-15 seconds T.V starts up, will you give total description of the T.V within that 10-15 seconds?

I get the same red lamp led indicator, bought the lamp and I am unable to locate the lamp inside the tv, took the lower back panel out and don't see anything that i can make out the lamp housing. is hard to replace the capacitor and where is the power board located. thanks a mill.

do you get an error code? hold the MENU and DEVICE buttons when turning on the TV and get error code

Lamps have been known to burn out the power supply to the DM assembly. If there is no visible damage to the lamp, your problem may be the power supply or the board. Good luck.
