Mitsubishi TVtroubleshooting
Here's something that might also be useful. After you turn on the set, and getthe regular red blinky lights, hold down the Device and Menu buttons togetherfor about 5 seconds.
The Power light will start to flash in a two digit sequence.
For example, 3 flashes, then 7 flashes = 37.
Here are the error codes, and the corresponding problem:
12 = No error detected, check power supply.
32 = Lamp Cover is open.
33 = Air filtercover is open.
34 = Lamp abnormality
36 = Light Engine (DMD or Lamp Fan stopped)
37 = Exhaust or Lamp Ballast Fan stopped
38 = Lamp Temperature High
39 = DMD Temperature High
41 = Short is detected
44 = DVI cablebetween FMT and Engine disconnected

SOURCE: Mitsubishi Projection TV WD-62525

I RECENTLY HAD A LAMP ISSUE THAT MAY ASSIST. I HAVE A MITSUBISHI WD-52525 52" DLP. I HAVE OWNED THE UNIT JUST OVE THREE YEARS. THE UNIT INDICATED THAT THE LAMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WHEN THE UNIT WAS TURNED ON. I ORDERED A LAMP AND BEFORE IT CAME IN THE UNIT QUIT WORKING. I REPLACED THE LAMP AND WHEN I POWERED UP THE UNIT I GOT A STEADY YELLOW INDICATION AND THEN A SOLID RED. MITSUBISHI TECH ADVICE STATED THAT I MAY HAVE BEEN SHIPPED A BAD REPLACEMENT LAMP. I SENT THE LAMP BACK AND ANOTHER WAS SENT TO ME. THAT LAMP ALSO GAVE THE SAME RESULTS. I CALLED CHUCKS ELECTRONIC REPAIR AND A VERY KNOWLEDGABLE TECHNICIAN RESPONDED TO MY HOME. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE POWER SUPPLY BOARD WAS BAD AND THAT THE LAMP NEVER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I SPOKE WITH REPRESENTATIVES AT MITSUBISHI SEVERAL TIMES AND THIS WAS NEVER EXPLAINED TO BE A POSSIBITLY. THE TECHS AT MITUSBISHI BASICALLY JUST READ FROM THE OWNER MANUEL AND HAD NO IDEA WHAT THEY WERE DOING.

SOURCE: No Power will not turn on WD 62525

Are there any lights indicating the Tv has power? Any relay click when you depress power button?? Try unplugging the unit for about one minute, then plug it back into power and attempt to power it up. Let me know.

SOURCE: cannot turn tv on

Check power supplly make sure its not the fault in wht this will not turn on.

Unplug tv from wall wait 30 secounds and plug back in.

If that does not work you will need to have someone look at the powersupply.

SOURCE: Mitsubishi WD-62525 yellow blinking status light

Check that the lamp door is closed all the way. There is a saftey switch that closes from the door being on all the way. If not the status light will keep blinking. There is also a switch on the air filter door.

SOURCE: Mitsubishi WD-62525 bglod fixed, but inputs are broken

look for dried out thermal paste on the transistors / i.c.'s especially on the power supply board.
test while the set is on, carefully! using coolant spray (freon) and, a hairdryer to find heat related faults keep turning the set on and, off to replicate the problem as you heat and cool components until you find the offending component. the coolant is non-conductive and, will not harm anything it touches except you. wear safety glasses and, keep your hands out of the way of the spray nozzle.
remove old non-conducting paste if a component gets too hot and, re-apply the paste.
radio shack sells the coolant spray (component cooler) and, the paste.

Check to see if the Lamp is shattered. If so replace it and it will probably work. If not, you
will need to get a Professional out to determine if it is a Optical Block issue or a bad Main Board.
