Samsung dlp color issue

If using a cable or sat box try a DVD etc when set cold, a box can cause lockup issues via signal.

Not a color wheel is correct, more likely a DMD which is rather pricy and almost as much as the entire light engine which comes with it.

sounds like you are haveing an issue with th color wheel timing. either the color wheel is bad or the dmd board is bad.only way to know is to have a technician look at it.

Yes. Of course. If the speed of rotation of color wheel to a projection TV or projector vary, it can obstruct proper working of the set. If you want more details about how can replace a color wheel to a DLP projection television, visit this site 'Electro-help'. Type in "electronicshelponline.blogspot" to your browsers' search box, and click search. Pull up older posts there. All details are there with illustrations. It is a blogspot site in English Language.

Fire the TV Tech! Your problem is the adjustment to the color wheel timing. To correct this: With TV OFF -> on remote, press MUTE, 1, 8, 2, POWER. The TV will come up in service mode: ( Left / Right arrow keys for item selection, Up / Down to change values, Menu to return to previous menu, Power to exit Service Mode)

Enter the submenu of item 1. DDP1011. Now, adjust item 4. INDEX DELAY to correct the "clay facing" problem you are having . Default value is 47.

You should have a "problem" image paused to check you work if possible. I hope this was of some assistance, best wishes.

If you are using Component inputs, check to make sure that the Blue Video Cable has not backed out of its connecting jack at either end or the cable it's self being bad. If you are using HDMI I would suspect that the Digital Board being bad. It would be odd for the Color Wheel to cause the problem but cannot eliminate it as a cause. The Lamp would cause the picture to be darker but not cause a color to drop out.
I would call a professional to trouble shoot it unless you have the knowledge and the tools to do so.
Hope this helps,

i found a step by step video on you tube it was great

Ours was on the color wheel. I also went to samsungparts.com and entered my tv model number and we could veiw the color wheel. However, the one we needed is back orders . I hope your is not.

See http://www.consumermeet.com/entry/samsung-remote-wire.html , that seems to address the same problem.

My 3 yr old Samsung DLP has the same buzzing noise, had a tech out today and he said "color wheel". Thank goodness I purchased that expensive warranty, This is my 4th repair in 3 years.
