My televison keeps turning off after being on for about 2 min. bulb has already been replaced.
Sounds like it is heating up on the inside. If you take the back cover competely off you will see that you have 4 fans on the inside, 2 big fans one on each side, one to cool the lamp and either 1 or 2 little fans which are located on the electrical box on left side and sometimes one that is mounted behind the DMD Board which is located behind the engine assembly. Because it is shutting down it tells me that the fan to cool the lamp is faulty. What happens is the fan cools the lamp, if the lamp gets too hot the television shuts down to protect itself from damage. Because AKAI parts are extremely rare to find I recommend not attempting to even turn on the television until you are able to replace the lamp cooling fan. If you see it is spinning it doesnt always mean that it is working because it may not be spinning fast enough. Good luck in finding a fan for it.
