Hi, I have a Hitachi 43FWX20B and the picture shows no red. I opened the servce cover and the red lamp does not light up when the TV is powered on. The other lamps light up just fine. I think the red lamp is burnt out. Where can I find a replacement lamp ? I have searched many of the links for replacement lamps off this page but have not found a replacement for my TV. Also - while I have it apart, is there anything else I shold o to tune it up ? I read somewhere that I should replace the CRT coolant fluid for this model if the picture has halos around objects or the picture is dull. Is this true ? Thanks, Brian

As you said your set uses 3 crt's red.blue and green.. not lamps.. If the red is not on it could be for several reasons other than the crt itself. From the driver ic located on the crt driver board attached to the neck of the red tube. It could also be the high voltage block or the anode lead going from the hv block to the crt itself. These carry a hefty voltage and will knock you on your but and make every filling in your mouth light up lol.. I recommend you having someone experienced check it out. As for the fluid, if the picture was good before it went out then that wouldnt be something to worry about. Removing the tubes to refill with fluid requires a massive alignment job afterwards.
