I have a Philips model
Problem with the Philips 50PL9126D/37B 50 in. HDTV DLP TV
I have a Philips model number 50PL9220D/37 and it turns off after about 30 seconds and a red light on the left hand side of the power button comes on. Not sure what to do.
The tv projection lamp in this tv been in the tv it like 2 years or more,tv in used daily like 4 or 5 hrs every day?The red LED light indicator is on,have a "LAMP"word written on the bazel frame?Yes,tv projection lamp life is over or eding.Tv reqire a new projection lamp.
the lamp is likely bad .. they only work a few thousand hours .. then must be replaced .. your lamp can cost a couple of hundred (maybe even more if bought locally) .. here is one for less if you have someone handy that can change it....... http://www.purelandsupply.com/50PL9126D-37-Bulb-Philips-DLP-TV-Bulbs.html ..... of course make sure power is off (unplugged) and make sure things are not hot .. there is usually a little cubby in the back where the lamp is located .. you an see what the lamp looks like at the above URL .. dont get finger prints on the bulb . that will cause it to crack when hot .. if you are unable to change the bulb then a call to philips service should do the trick. make sure you ask what the bulb replacement and labor will cost ..
99% chance your lamp needs to be replaced. Prices are in $120 -180 range. Search for "50PL9126D/37 lamp". they are available with or Without cage. Version with cage is preferred because it will be easier to install it.
