Question about Sony KP-43HT20 43" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television

Flashing color in and out with popping sound

My tv just started to flash in and out of color. When it changes color I get this popping sound with the volume and then you can hear the program. This just constantly repeats itself. It stopped briefly the other day, then when I turned it back on today, the same problem was going on. Any help appreciated.

I wanted to add that this only does so when watching tv. When watching a dvd it does not do it. I was thinking possibly the tuner. Are these replaceable or feasible to replace?

This sounds like the solder joints have cracked on the AFT can inside the tuner, a common Sony problem. Removing the tuner, opening it up and resoldering the grounds and small transformers inside should clear it up.

TV made a big popping sound, and then a crackling

Hi,do you hear any strange noises? If you hear clicking or like wanting to turn on it could be the board that powers the lamp it's called the ballast.Here's the instructions to replace it :http://www.fixyourdlp.com/guides/samsung/bp47-00033a.php That crackling sound could be of the color wheel:The color wheel is a rotating disc that has a gamma of colors it spins at high rpms.The light of the lamp goes through it to create the colors on your tv.When it starts to go bad you will get color distortion ,black and white picture and sometimes you will hear humming noises. But if you don't hear any strange noises,tv is around 6000 hrs,2-4 yrs it could be time to replace the lamp.The lamp you need is BP9601073A you can find original here:http://www.discount-merchant.com/Samsung-BP96-01073A-lamp-p/samsung-bp96-01073a-lamp-oem.htm?Click=48173 .Have a blessed one!

Sound problem

Go into your TV settings and change the Automatic Volume Control Sound Mode. It's probably at Dynamic and the TV is trying to adjust the volume. The popping sound may be caused by static electricity building up on the circuits of your TV or cable.

Does this also happen when you are watching a video/DVD?
