you might have some dust inside the light engine you should dust out your TV set and if you clean the TV and still have the same problem then I would say you have a problem with your optical block

PLEASE RATE THIS SOLUTION AS I DO THIS FOR FREE !!!!!

check with diferent input , if still the same the problem on ur tv is the optical block , but try diferent input , or a dvd player sometimes the cable box goes out

This could be a variant of, or a newer (or older) version of the "DMD fan failure" message.

Symptoms I had are, I stop hearing a fan when the message is displayed.
Then the temp LED keeps flashing RED until I either try to turn the TV on again,
Or turn MAIN power off/on again. BUT it repeats when I try to turn the TV on.
The picture appears normal until this happens ( about 15 sec.)

The solution is to FORCE a normal shutdown by hitting the TV off button
before the message appears.
You should see the power LED flashing RED/GREEN (cool down) and then RED (standby).

turning off the main can be very harmful to rear projectors if you dont wait for the cooling off period, for instance when you turn off the tv from the remote, the fans inside are still on in order to dissipate the heat given out by the lamp. as a result some of the lens inside the engine may have burns-in caused by excess of heat.thus leading to shadows on the screen.

hope this helps

please rate me!

Sounds like a problem with the color wheel. Unfortunately the color wheel is located inside the light engine. According to everything I have read, the only thing you can do is replace the light engine. You are better off replacing the TV. The light engines can run form $750 to $1400. Which is ridiculous!

Technical Service Corp 888-942-2929 is where you can purchase an optical engine, I inquired for my RD 65. The part cost over $900, not quite worth it.

Hope this helps

They are one in the same IIRC. I'm having my TV repair for the same issue. Don't worry for now because the item has had its warranty extended to Oct 08.

i beleive its electrical problem (horizontal circuit). if u are not inclined with this job just bring it there and besides they will give you warranty for their work.
