My 65HM167 keeps blowing the bulb, what do I do now?

Hi anna,
Make sure you have plenty of clearance between the tv and the wall...if not it will keep sucking in the heated air and cause the bulbs to blow.

Pop off the front panel below the tv screen. Remove bulb cover door (screw) and then remove the bulb housing. Replace with new bulb and reverse the process.



Thank you and best of luck!

Manufacturers may refer to the bulb as the lamp. They are one and the same.
Hope that helps.

most likely some bulb it out

okay you have to make sure you close the door that the buld goes into there is a liitle micro switch that only triggers when the cover is removed it stops the tv from lighting up the bulb once you close the door and all are put back together properly the tv will come on if it dosent you need to read in between the flashing codes

Unfortunately lamps go bad without the visible state of being bad. I don't know who or where you bought the lamp from but I order all my lamps through dlplamps.com
The clicking sound you hear is the lamp inverter igniteing the lamp but the lamp is bad.

It the main projection unit,help get light to the picture bulb to have picture.

the pop was your bulb breaking. You have to buy a new one. so easy to replace. please refer to your manual on how to access the bulb casing

Your TV is a DLP one lamp does it all, not like the old projection TVs with the Red, Green & Blue CRTs. Your TV may have a bad light engine or lose cable connections.

Good luck

I have the same problem. This is the second bulb in 6 months. The first one lasted 13 months. The bulb explodes inside and makes a loud snap noise, like an arc. The repair guy said it was the ballast along with the bulb. Good luck
