Hi:
This model was notorious for fan failure. The most common failure was the lamp temp fan. Its use to keep the lamp a constant temp. Also if one of the fans fail the unit will not start, This model is also known for Ballast failure also. The ballast is use to light the lamp. The best thing you can do is have a service technician come out and diagnostic the set for a minium fee.

Sony grand wega 3lcd light is flashing red 3 times

Three flashes is lamp cover/lamp position error, it means the lamp cover is not set right, or the lamp is not in the right position. There are two micro switches to detect the lamp position, and lamp cover. Please reset the lamp and the lamp cover (door).

U might just have a bad ballast. It generates the high voltage to fire up your bulb.

This may be caused by poor ventilation or the vents may be blocked."

"If this happens:





· Check to see if the vents are blocked. If the vents are dusty, vacuum the vents to remove the dust.



· If the PS3 system is in an enclosed area like a bookshelf or entertainment center, move it to a more open area.



· Leave the PS3 system off for 30 minutes to let it cool down.



· If you continue to have issues, you will have to send the system in for service." Hope this will help...

Tv turns on w/pic then pic dissapears light blinks 4 times

I have the same issue, we've had to change our bulb three times in less than two years. now we have 61" expensive paper weight. Our current bulb is less than 6 months old. The TV is only 2 years old and like i said this is our third bulb.

the blue light blinks 4 times. you get sound. then a few minutes the the picture returns... then it goes out, and the cycle goes on.

A solution to this would be greatly appreciated.

Samsung HLP4674W - changed bulb - still no picture - lights flash

If the lamp has been replaced I would think the Lamp ballast would be most likliest followed by the color wheel and then the Digital board. You can get any part needed for your model at www.tvrepairworld.com just leave them a email they respond quickly.

Red Light Flashing 6 times

When the lamp fails in this unit, often the thermal fuse opens. The error code is 6 blinks. To replace this part requires a great deal of deal of disassembly.

TV takes 5 minutes to come on.

"The bulb"?? Yes I guess it could be the bulb. Or a million other things. Probably some small part on a circuit board. Call a repair shop... TVs are dangerous to work on so don't try it.
