If you have a warranty on it, you should be able to have it replaced for free. Otherwise light engines start at 400 dollars.

Light bulb

White dot for DLP Projector TV is not because of the light buy. It is caused by aging DLP chip ( DMD Chip.) Your TV DLP Part should be the following image:

I have whit dots all over my tv how do you fix this problem

If the model number (Toshiba 65HM167) is correct the dots are a damaged Optical light engine.

These early units were DLP but had a 1/4 of a million micro mirrors in the optical unit--if they do not open and close correctly you get dots---seen some with 15 or more dots.

No fix. Just a replacement. The engines in DLP sets normally run about $750.00.

My LG projection tv has bluing on the botttom and

Actually hardrocko it is not a DLP light engine so the link you put up is completely wrong. DLP TVs have light engine and LCD projection have optical blocks. These are two totally different technologies. It is possible to fix this problem by cleaning the blue lcd chip. This link is more efficient in helping you solve your problem. It is for a sony LCD projection but very similiar to the 60in LG. http://sites.google.com/site/sonylcdrptvproblems/optical-block-defects and http://sites.google.com/site/sonylcdrptvproblems/sonykdf-55wf655opticalblockreplacement these two site should help you fix your problem if these don't fix it then unfortunately you will have to invest in a new optical block which will cost roughly $700. I've got the RU60SZ10 which is pretty much the same TV and these two sites have helped me tremendously.

SCREEN HAS GONE BLUE AT TOP PINK IN MIDDLE AND GREEN AT BOTTOM AND PITCURE IS DOUBLED UP

Good Day,
If this a DLP TV you have a bad 'Light Engine'. It would be best to go an Authorized Service Center for repair it will be costly, but some Companies have a recall on their Light Engines also known as Optical Block.

Good Luck, BIG IRISH.

I have a toshiba 62mx195 with a bad light engine does anybody repair light engines?

Hello
Im having problems with my 62mx195.
The I have a good picture but i have shadows next to or on certain objects. It occurs over the whole screen at different scenes of show. There are blue shadows that pop up intermittently. I have tried hooking up different DVD players to the TV to see if there is a difference, but nothing. It seems minor but it annoying as hell. I hope it is not an Light Engine.
