I would check for burnt resistors as the 150s are interchangeable with the 110s however in alot of hitachis I have seen resistors blow after upgradeing to the higher wattage ICs. I Usually switch out the convergence resistors whenever I go to a higher wattage IC just to be sure. If you need more help let me know.

please check all the lights that are in the chassis hitachi puts led in the chassis so that if one of the lights are not working then u know that circuit is bad. now there is 2 things that hit has wroung in the units and that is a 2kv hv cap of the horiz output transistor that burns up and kill the power supply look for a small black or brown fuse it will not have glass on it it is rt behind the reg ic in the center of the chassis it allwas opens up because of the hv cap doonot run the tv without out that cap it will overload the horiz drive and will burn upo the horiz output but u have a very good ctv ther if u fix it will last u a long time and it is a very easy tv to trouble shoot.

SOURCE: continued from no picture no sound just clicking

The TV is on protect mode. The clicking sound is the protection switch that keep turning the TV off to prevent further damage, this happens when a fault had been detected.

Try first leaving the TV power cord unplugged for some times, let say one hour or so.

Also ensure that the fault is not coming from a faulty receiver box sending bad signal, check if you get same problem with no receiver box or dvd connected.

If that does not work, and you keep having a flashing led on front of the TV, and tv turning off by itself after a while, that indicates a fault condition.

The flashing light indicates a diagnostic state called protection.
When the TV goes on protection there are only two possible reasons.

1The internal circuits are jammed because of electrostatic charges accumulating on capacitors, or because of a wrong voltage read by the main chip on your monitor controller board. this started the protection circuit.

2 The protection circuit detected a wrong voltage or abroken contact, identified an internal fault and kicked in , startingthe flashing light.


If you are in situation one, then theTV will reset just unplugging power cord for one or two hours,sometimes even minutes.

If you are in situation 2 , then there is an internal fault.

Common faults that can occur are a blown capacitor on power board, a convergence IC has blown, or a fault on Digital board.

Check also the video cable or any external connection cable, if the cable is shorting, or the connector is bad, you can get same flashing state because of the video cable.


If under warranty contact the manufacturer ringing the number on the user manual

SOURCE: Have a Hitachi 53sdx89BA Rear Projection TV. Turn

Discharged Flyback Transformer. Removed main pc board from bottom of TV and flipped over, no apparent damaged components or blown board traces were found. Noticed a lot of flux in various areas on the board that seemed unusual (maybe TV was worked on before as I bought a showroom demo at Circuit City). Used a plastic screwdriver to remove all flux between connections on ICs, Transformers, Flyback Transformer, and various other components. Cleaned all debris, dust and crud accumulation (TV is over 10 years old and there was alot around the Flyback Transformer) from both sides of board using a lightweight paint brush.
Used a magnifying glass to check all solder joints for possible cold solders and found none. Did the same for Power Supply Board. Checked various ICs and Power Transistors for opens or shorts (in machine) and they seemed fine. Reinstalled boards, said a few Hail Mary's and fired it up.

The protector Led no longer flashed under power and lo and behold I got picture and sound!

I cleaned the lens on the projectors (again 10 years of dust accumulation) did a magic focus adjustment and it works fine!

After reading other fixes, I fully expected it to die after 10 minutes so I left it on all day and against all odds it still works.

What was the fix......Dirt buildup on and around Flyback and other components,,,,,,Flux conducting electricity between contacts on Flyback and other components.....or oxidation on connectors between Power Supply and Main Board.....I don't know.... all I know is that for the moment I saved around $ 300 - 400 in repair bills by doing it myself.

My lamp blew out on my samsung hlr5067wx 50" model. can you tell me how to take the lamp and the casing out. thank you dave

It's super easy -
1) Unscrew the small hatch in the bottom right of the back panel
2) Looking straight back, you will see what looks like a small flood lamp in a square enclosure, with one screw in the middle of the left most edge facing you.
3) Unscrew this screw, being carefull not to lose it
4) Using the two outsets above and below the screw, pull the square assembly straight out toward you.

That's it. You've removed the existing lamp! To replace it, you would just slide a new one into place and screw it in following the opposite process from removal.

Video is taking on a red tint which is getting worse over time

check the cable connections. look at different inputs. VGA and Component cables have the colors split, so if it's turning red, green, or blue; it's likely a cable or connector.

Rca tv

i assume you speaking of the fusable link that causes the convergence problem... IF the convergence option is not visable in the setup menu. then possibley FL231 is the problem this is a small rectangular fuse brown or tan in color. this is located on the deflection board on left of the set from the back. there is a large black component with a large wire coming out of the top. this is the flyback.. to the right of it on the board is three small rectangular componts brown or tan in color. the fl231 is the middle one of these. the curcit board has index markings like a map these components are located in Q5 Quadrant. When replacing this rember to resolder connections on flyback(that large black thing with wire out the top) This is why the fuse blew to begin with

Convergence problem?

If it's OK when first turned on, I would suspect either bad solder connections on the convergence or power supply board, or capicators on either board heating up and breaking down. Pioneer parts are expensive, so I would look for a shop that can do component level repair. You may save about $100 or so.
