Hi, Yes, if you have not replaced the lamp since you purchased this TV. Lamps usually last about 6000 hours. I've seen lamps last much longer than 6000Hrs, it all depends on the usage. Remove the lamp from the TV and do a visual inspection, see if there's a crack on the glass or the bulb. If the TV is few years old then the Lamp may be bad.
Don't know if this applys to you but if you have purchased anything but Osram or Philips replacement lamp for your DLP tv then this is probably your problem.. The generic is VERY tempting in this recession but in this case generic is poison to your dlp tv... i have a Mitsubishi 60735 and went thru 2 generic bulbs when my tv kept shutting down on it's own and the lights on front would flash, i could cut it back on for 10 minutes then flicker and shut down again ..well since the bulb was new i thought it may be defective so i got is exchanged for another one ... after all of the post i have seen how much repairs were going to cost on dlp sets no matter what the problem was ..i was ready to chunk the tv out the door when the second lamp was doing the same thing.....!! well a last ditch effort to save my tv before i trashed it or taking it apart to dissect it.. was to buy a brandname lamp ... in my case i purchased a Philips ..it cost twice as much =/ ..i could just return it if it didn't work.. well it was the generic lamps that was causing trouble.. the brandname worked perfectly .. i am just glad the generic lamp didn't do any damage to my TV!!! I have done further research on the generic lamps and realized that the damage it could have done was not worth the money i saved when i purchesed it... Generic is a great deal In some cases (household cleaners, etc..) but in this case GET THE NAME BRAND!!!! the only name brands i know of for these lamps are Philips or Osram/Sylvania.. hope this helps others from this headache. Do your research don't by generic lamp replacements, your DLP set cost to much to risk it.
Yes, lamp installation procedure is written in user manual of TV and click Sony Support to download user manual copy if required. Lamp replacement is simple process, take out old lamp and slid in new lamp. Please buy Sony original lamp for TV safety.
When you are in front of tv grasp the right side of the front grill and pull it off, the lamp door is right behind it. Unscrew the cover and remove it, you will need the allen wrench provided with the new lamp to remove the old lamp just unscrew it and pull it out.
Unplug Tv from AC for minimum 30 minutes, at right bottom side of TV there is cover. It is lamp cover, open it and pull out old lamp and put new lamp.Screw lamp cover and turn On TV.

I have just bought a second hand Sony 50 inch Projection & the owner from new (paid 1200 Quid) assures me he has never replaced the bulb in 6 years. Don't pay 190 Pounds plus, if you can loosen 2 nuts you can get an Osram bulb alone (not mounted) for 32 Pounds 55 Dollars delivered if you search well on E Bay
