IF IT USES A LAMP AND HAS THIS -- the problem is inside the optical light engine--a lot of them get damaged from the intense heat from the lamp which shines directly into the engine.
Changing the lamp is easy enough. The lamp is about $250.00 . There's a lamp cover door usually in the back that removes, then the lamp housing will be displayed held in with 2 screws most of the time,, then you will be able to pull the lamp assembly out.
Just found this trying to figure out what was wrong with my same model tv. Since mine was under warantee, I had the repairman troubleshoot it. He changed the lamp and the tv started working normally again.
I didn't understand how the lamp could be bad if it lit up while the tv was on. He said the tube was probably using too much voltage or too little voltage to run, so the tv would turn itself off and on in an attempt to receive the correct voltage from the lamp.
I realize this is 9 months late, but maybe it can help someone else who has this problem. I can't believe there are only 3 rca dlp's out there with this problem.
