Lamp or Bulb

Thank You...I had this same Sony Grand WEGA KF50WE610 50 in. Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television for four yrs now.....finally just last evening. I have no picture nor sound the power button blinks five or six times and then the LAMP indicator ( located under the power button) light blinks red several times before a solid red light back on the power button.

IS this a LAMP replacement or a Bulb?
Thank you,
Whyte23

Changed out rear bulb and system still flashing like bulb is still bad what do i need to do

Make sure the lamp door is closed correctly with security strap tightened. If the door is not just right, it will give you the same result as a bad bulb.

Sony Grand Wega KF50WE610. No picture, no sound. Green light comes on and then starts flashing red. Bulb light does not come on.

5 blinks is lamp driver error, but is usually the lamp. Else it's the lamp driver (ballast), if it has the ~280VDC coming to it.

Sony Wega KF-42E200A Projection Bulb

New bulb is just fine.
3 blink shows that lamp cover after replacement of bulb in TV is not fixed properly or not seated well in its position.
Put new bulb and carefully place back lamp cover in its position because lamp cover will press tinny safety switch inside that will send signal to system control of TV that lamp is installed properly.
Turn On TV and get vivid picture of Sony.
Thanks.
