You have a bad picture tube or a bad driver signal that drives the CRT. Could be a bad capacitor in the boost voltage circuit also. if you have no TV repair experience, contact an Authorized Sony repair center to have a look and assist you in the repair of this TV set. Good Luck

TV picture is dark but has sound, did flashlight test and can see a faint picture.

Usually means inverter or power board is bad! Check power board for voltages. Voltages are usually printed on the header port. if Inverter is bad panel would need replacing. If TV is less than or equal to 12 months contact Samsung for warranty repair.

You need to replace the inverter board. The lamp failing is very uncommon, moreover LCD Tvs have more than one lamp, and they do not fail all at once.
The connection cable from inverter to main board must be tested, the inverter must be tested, then the inverter must be replaced.
If you DIY remember that the inverter is an high voltage board.

TV picture is red.

Normal color picture is composed with 3 colors R-G-B (Red-Green-Blue). Picture turns Red means: Missing Green and Blue colors (many reasons: bad contacts, projector tubes dead, and other...). Try to give some "tabs" to diagnose ... I don't know what is the type of your Projection TV, how long you owned it, to have more idea.

No picture but has sound

The problem can be caused by a bad sustain board (Ysus Zsus) , the popping sound is often caused by a capacitor blowing up.
The TV must be taken apart and tested before eventually replacing sustain boards.

Blue and white picture

It sounds as though you may have a bad red convergence chip. If it's not the chip, you may have a bad Red CRT ( Picture Tube ). You may want to obtain professional assistance unless you have the proper test equipment to check these items. I hope this has helped in some way.

No Picture

Did you have color problems in past? Most of these sets have convergence problems. Amps goes out. But you should have seen some type of distortion from color, red,blue, green. If no color problems then maybe vertical ouput out or horizontal output bad.
