Samsung DLP Facial Colors off after changing color wheel

Hi,
I recently changed my color wheel (which was shattered into pieces). After changing the color wheel, the facial color (skin color) changes from the normal color to pinkish yellow. Also the background has the same issue with some color patterns. Not sure what the problem is. Please advise. Thank you very much.

Do you mean that red and blue are reversed? If so, you may need to remove a jumper, see end of linked article. Pinkish-yellow or orange sounds like a good description of skin tone, but perhaps too intense. If the color is too intense, can you just lower the color level with the color control? Or can you just change the tint with the tint control? Otherwise, see http://www.jangro.com/electronics/samsung-dlp-replace-color-wheel/ including the comments at the end.

Samsung HLR5078 50" tv - replaced a shattered color wheel but the colors are way off with the new one - yellow in place of both red and greens.

I'm not sure you received the correct color wheel. Do you have anything left of the shattered color wheel to compare it to the new one? Seems if you got the correct wheel then the colors should of been the same. Color wheels spin at the same rate of 60Hz. The only reason why you would get the wrong color is that the color on the wheel is in the wrong placed at the right time. I would see if you can get a wheel the same # as your original one.

Tv samsung hls4266w all light are blinking replace the blud small fan and large fan running

Sounds like a bad color wheel----remove lamp---the wheel faces it--look for missing pieces or the wheel shattered---these are known for the wheel making a loud high pitched sound or even a grinding sound if the wheel shatters.

if wheel bad You Tube has video instructions for replacing it---seen several people able to do this themselves in about a hour. Google the model number to ("color wheel") to locate a replacement on the internet.10_24_2012_4_08_47_pm.jpg

High frequency noise

Hi. The most common cause for this is the color wheel. Replacing it requires removal of the engine/optical block. I'm not sure of your level of expertise but if you want to give it a try go to this website: http://www.jangro.com/electronics/samsung-dlp-replace-color-wheel/ It'll give you some idea of what you're up against. It is similar to what you'll have to do but I don't think your chassis is exactly the same as this one so some things will look different inside.

Color wheel on DLP TV about to die

Eventually the set will refuse to power up, better to change the color wheel, as it could shatter and cause further damage in the light tunnel
