Question about RCA HD61LPW42 61" Rear Projection HDTV

RCA HD61LPW42 runs for an hour then pic goes out for a minute and comes back

About four weeks ago, I had the tv on for about 2 hours and suddenly the picture started having bright white flashes in it and then the fan died down and picture went to black (still had sound). I waited for about a minute and then the wound back up and picture came back on. Worked great for about 15 minutes and then did the same. Since then this is what it continues to do. If I turn it off before the pic goes out and leave it off for about ten minutes, I can view for about 30 minutes before it starts happening again. RCA tech said it was my bulb. I replaced it and it still does it. Please help!

No picture,good sound

If everything else works - there is sound and high voltage (static on the screen) - but there is no picture (including no on-screen menus), this limits the likely area of problems is the video output circuitry or CRT filament connections. Check to see if the CRT filaments are glowing. If they are not glowing, check for bad soldering on the CRT neck board and around the flyback transformer. Where the picture is erratic - coming and going entirely or changing brightness suddenly, with power off, remove the picture tube socket (carefully!) and clean the pins with fine sandpaper and use contact cleaner on the socket. This source of bad connections can result in a variety of erratic symptoms. Check for bad solder connections on the CRT neck board

Mitsu 57731 problems have wide bar across screen

This is an ongoing problem with Mitsubishi DLP HDTV's contact the Customer Service at 1-800-332-211. Tell them this has been going on for a while and you want the TV either Fixed or Replaced. Ask for Adrianne Hardt, she is a Customer Service Manager...... TELL HER RICK GRIFFITH told you to call.

I am in the 4th week negociations with Mitsubishi over these exact problems. I purchased my 57" DLP HDTV in Aug of 06. Replaced the Lamp 3 times and have had 5 Service calls. I DO NOT have and extended Warranty. Mitsubishi provided me with the extention in writing and stated if any problem occurred again they would replace the Unit or provided monetary compensation.

Good Luck and be persistant.
