When I turn on my tv the green light is lit and the tv comes on with no sound and no picture,then when I turn the set off the red light flashes 5 times? Is this a bulb issue or something else. A few months ago it did the same thing but I unplugged and plugged back in and the tv worked for a few more months? weird... anything would be helpful. I have replaced the tv but would like to fix so I can sell?

The usual problem is that the lamp needs to be replaced. However, there is no guaranty that lamp replacement will correct the problem.

Ths 5 blinks usually indicate an AKB problem. There is a break in the video path. I'll look up your specific model and post the results here. Please update this if you wish to attempt the repair yourself.
Thanks,

Perhaps it needs the bulb, but there is also a good possibility that the lamp fan is getting clogged and shutting down the set. This is NOT the fan you see in the back, instead, it is above the lamp, and is a small blower-type fan, that tends to clog with dust. You CAN check this, when you open the lamp door,you can see the blower wheel, and if it is all dusty, it needs to be cleaned out--but do NOT just blow it out, or you might clog the engine!! It needs to be removed, and cleaned out of the set.
But first...if the blower is not too dirty...try another lamp.

I would have to say you have a bad projection lamp!! They do NOT last forever!!! About 3000 hours is normal. If this is out of warranty--about $300 in--house repair or so.
