Question about Mitsubishi WD-62327 62" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television

Lamp light turns red

I just replaced the light two weeks ago. Everthing worked fine for two weeks but the timer light that turns green when power is pushed has taken longer and longer to turn the TV on. Now the timer light comes on steady green for 30 to 40 seconds then goes off and the lamp indicator light starts flashing green for awhile the turns red

Yes this is the signal for a bad lamp. Other things can cause this. 1. Look at the new lamp. make sure it still looks good. not broken with little glass pieaces in it. 2. When you turn on the tv, put your ear to the lower back part of the tv near the middle. Listen for the start up of the color wheel (a low high pitch sound only at the start up of the motor). If this is good you will here a ticking sound only if the lamp dose not light.

Now with all this info. If the lamp lights (as seen from the back of the set) and goes out after a few seconds and you did not here the color wheel spin up, the color wheel is bad.

If you here the color wheel spin up and no ticking sound, the Ballast is bad.

The ballast part no. 939P978010

The color wheel is not avialable from Mits. You will have to replaced the light engine. It cost to much. Just buy a new tv.

Make sure its an original Osram or Philips bulb inside the housing. If its a cheap lamp it will act this way. If it is an original lamp, then you may have a power supply issue. It shouldn't affect your TV but you may want to try resetting the lamp timer by following the instructions that came with the lamp.

While pressing the VOL- button on the projection display, hold down the number 0 button on the remote control at the same time for more than 5 seconds.

I plug in the tv. and nothing but one green light and a blinking red light. I got the tv a few weeks ago with the knowledge of a light needing replaced but, I can't troubleshoot any further.

Have you changed the bulb? If so you need to re-set the lamp hours on the set. This is done in the menu section on the TV and is listed in the manual. Make sure that everthing click into place after replacing the lamp holder.

I would suggest it is a ballast problem. You can check supply of 5 volts to ballast's small 5 pin connector (trigger voltage) and about 300V-330V to large 2pin connector. If both voltages present at the start and lamp is working with in another TV - it is bad ballast.

Ballast failure is more that likley the problem. Is the lamp light blinking,...once every 5 seconds? Discontinued part and can only be purchased used or rebuilt. Rebuilt units are available, check Ebay. Have a service type person confirm problem before throwing good money after bad!
