Replacing bulb in hd61lpw42 rca. Question: I have replaced the bulb before but this time the glass covering the mirror is broken. I suppose the additional heat of the bulb cracked it. My wife said the...

lbcofer,

Just make sure that you purchase the entire module, not just the lamp. Also make sure that any glass is removed from the set. I have a tip at

http://www.fixya.com/support/r4168009-change_lamp_in_dlp_projection_tv

which explains the process and where to get the best quality lamps at the best price. Do not use after market lamps or cheap lamps as they will explode as yours did and do not last as long as OEM lamps. In some cases they will not even be compatable with the equipment. The old adage about you get what you pay for, is definitely true in this case.

Thanks for using FixYa and for the great rating. Please consider a testimonial. Thank you.

A cheapest way to get a replacement LCD is to buy another used camera through ebay. Look for one sold for parts, but with good lCD. Open the camera.s is easily done by removing 5-6 screws. Once the cover is removed, LCD is directly accessible. A good tutorial available in:

I have a blue Sanyo 12.1 mega digital camera. I bought the warranty but can't find the slip. The screen is cracked and I would like to replace it.

Buy an LCD screen and replace it yourself. A cheaper way to do it is to buy a same used camera with a good LCD (one sold for parts) through ebay (WWW.ebay.com). Try to get one under $10. Buy a screwdriver set for $1 from dollar store. Open teh camera by removing 5-6 screws. Once the cover is removed (be gentle), LCD is accessible. May be before you do it, look at the site:

Best of luck.

Digital camera screen broken

A cracked screen will cost you, but maybe not as much as you think. Instead of replacing the whole , you can spend about $300 and replace the screen yourself. All you need is a small screwdriver.

1)Turn off the power to your screen and unplug all cables connected to it.
2)Remove the battery, if one is installed.
3)Locate the covered screws around the cracked screen. Remove the rubber/plastic covers, then unscrew the screws.
4)Gently remove the plastic frame around the cracked screen and set it aside.
5)Disconnect any power cords or cables going into the LCD screen.
6)Remove the cracked screen and slide the new screen into place. Replace any tape or plastic fasteners that hold it in place.
7)Reconnect all internal cords to the screen.
8)Screw in the frame and replace all the screw covers.
9)Reconnect the power supply and all external cables to the LCD screen and switch it on.

Cracked LCD

Elas, How do you want me to help you. A cracked screen is a cracked screen. And you say that it does not help you take pics. Well. you are already doing the next best thing, ie, using the eyepiece. If you feel that is cumbersom then have the screen replaced. You may not be able to justify the crack, towards warranty.
