This is a DLP projection TV from the model you posted I guess. Is there any kind of light on the screen at all such as on screen displays? This is the first step in trying to isolate the problem.

Our lamp went out this afternoon to our 62" DLP mitsubishi Tv, problem we are having is, we bought a new lamp, we replaced it, when we turn on TV red lights (lamp and the status) buttons are still flashing...

The lamp door or air vent doors are most likely not closed correctly as those doors will make the lights blink orange.

Television will not respond to panel power switch or remote

This unfortunately has become a widespread problem with this series of Mits televisions. You can read a forem about it here: Flashing green light of death But there is hope, Mitsubishi has instituted a rebuilding program for the chassis inside of your television. Any authorized Mitsubishi repair center should know about how to get you set repaired. It's not cheap (expect $500-$600) and it takes a few weeks, but it will save your TV.

Where is the Lamp located in the Mitsubishi 2004 model the number is WD-62327

Turn unit around facing you, either on right rear side or left rear side, generally looks as though it is a vent cover with one to three screws holding cover in place. UNPLUG TV BEFORE YOU WORK ON IT AS ELECTRICITY CAN KILL YOU.

My 62 inch mitsubishi tv was hit by lighting

Try to find a local repair centre & ask if they can give you an estimate on the cost to repair. A lightning strike can cause either minor damage such as just an internal fuse blown or can cause severe damage which will wipe out entire circuit boards which can be a costly repair. In this case it's usually not worth repairing.

something is not quite right here. usually mits has a good rep, but this doesn't sound quite right. i suggest you contact mits customer service about your experience.

you need to make sure your fans, and vents are kept clean, if they cant cool the lamp properly, it will make the lamp go out faster, also change your setting in the menue to power save, or low power, saves on lamp time
