Question about Samsung HLN617W 61" Rear Projection HDTV

NO PICTURE The buld looks good. I can hear a click as if trying to start the bulb, but still no picture. I was told that some dust may have gotten into it. There does not look like anything for dust to get into. How can I test the buld and the board starting the bulb?

Test the voltage at the inverter, and if they are good, replace the inverter board.

The bulb is bad, replace it, you cannot test the bulb. You can test the inverter circuit, but you will need a service manual and the knowledge on how to work on and trouble shoot solid state printed circuit boards. Good Luck

The only solution I could find was to put the Samsung in the Repair Shop!
When I get an answer to the problem and cost of repairs I will post it and hopefully
It will help someone else with this problem fix their set just for the cost of parts.
Yea I'm gonna take one for the team!

When i changed the front light buld for the low beam i turn it on and then it smokes and its no more good

if you read the instructions it told you to not touch the bulb or the grease/sweat from your fingers would melt onto and screw up the bulb. try it again and either leave the glass part alone or wear some clean soft gloves.

Unfortunately lamps go bad without the visible state of being bad. I don't know who or where you bought the lamp from but I order all my lamps through dlplamps.com
The clicking sound you hear is the lamp inverter igniteing the lamp but the lamp is bad.

My kp 53s65 picture seems to be darker now than when i bought it. is this normal in a dlp tv ? someone told me to change the buld but i was not sure if i should.

KP53S65 is a rear projection Sony several years old--It is not a DLP and does not have a bulb--it has three picture tubes---if the set has not been serviced in a long time here is what you can do to try to improve it:

1.) Unplug set
2.) Remove back cover
3.) You will see 3 black lens (one for each tube)
4.) With a paper towel (spray glass cleaner on it) clean the dust from the three lens---if they have not been cleaned in a long time and have dust on them the picture will be darker and less distinct.

5.) Replace back cover and plug set in to see if this has helped----I have seen some where there was so much dust on the lens that it looked 50% better after just cleaning the lens--depending on area you live in--should be cleaned once a year.

I do this here for free so if this has helped you please take a minute to give me a vote here.

Ensure that you don't handle the bulb with bare fingers. wipe the bulb with meths and hold the buld with a lint free cloth when you're putting it in. If it's still blowing it's probably over heating so check the fan

Need to change the bulb should I get the Sony 5100 or the Phillips or the Osram?

I have the KDS-R60XBR1 model and was told by Sony and Digital Lamp Seller you really want to replace your lamp bulb with only Certified Sony Replacement bulbs vs any aftermarket type bulbs. I would prefer looking on the internet to find these bulbs if you don't want to purchase from the Sony site. On the Sony site they are approx. $250 and I have seen these bulbs for $160 with the refurbished housing. Or you can buy the buld only $90 - $120 and change it yourself and it will take you approx. 10 -15 minutes to complete this task. Just make sure you do not touch the face of the bulb. Good luck!
