Please let me know if you can get any sound at all out of your unit.
solution

I had a similar problem. I had a 52" RCArear projection tv. It would do this when I initially turned on the television, but then after a few "on/off, on/off, on/off" cycles it would stay on. Eventually it started doing it more; until finally there was a spark and that was it. The tv was dead.The bloggers called it "the blinking green light of death" (because of green light on the panel).The power board is going out.ALSO holding down the Input and Menu buttons afterward will give you some diagnostic information via 2 sets of blinking indicator lights.

You may very well have issues with capacitors on this set being that it is or very similar to the V26 chassis. Since I have spare test lamps laying around, I would normally try that first. If the lamp still would not stay lit, I would then suspect the electrical chassis (capacitors). When I suspect the chassis, I can usually verify it by pulling it out and partially disassemble it and find blown capacitors

    Have you referred to appendix H in the owners guide (These have saved me a ton of money with fixing my own sets, JUST OBSERVE ALL CAUTIONS) and, also, studied the rather exhaustive troubleshooting pages that follow? The troubleshooting is tedious however well worth the time and money spent.

    If the lamp is replaced, did you reset the status? See the guide book for the details. You must reset the status for the new lamp to work correctly.

    So, I recommend you carefully go through the entire procedure for removing the lamp, installing a new one and doing the reset procedures. This will ensure that if you plan to replace the lamp, you can do it right the first time without paying someone several HUNDRED bucks to do it for you.

    If you have an extended warranty - which I highly recommend be purchased with all new technology sets, such as, DLP and LCD and Plasma technologies - they should take care of it.

    If the careful replacement procedures do not bring it back to life then you are going to need a Mitsu service expert look at it.
