I'm not sure if anyone posted this but if you want to know why this happens, then keep reading. first the lamp burns out and you replace it. Sometimes a generic lamp is different in terms of energy and light output. Therefore the heat from the lamp is greater when it hits the mirrors, at levels that it wasn't tested for. Over time this "glues" the microscopic mirrors. The best way to prevent this is to provide the proper cooling. First clean all dust inside including fans AND the most important is to clean off the thermal grease on the heatsink and replace it with fresh and more efficient silver thermal grease. Not expensive and found easily online and in electronics stores. This allows less heat to remain in the DLP chip and therefore the heat leaves through the heatsink out the fan. Many computer guys would know this and this WILL prevent from buying another DLP chip or at least extend the lifetime. Hope this helps!!!
Very easy to follow, thank you! The only trouble i had was i tried it before i put the lamp.door on. Turns out the lamp door triggers a platic safety switch. So i was just getting a blinking orange light. I put the door on and the tv was fine. Its a blue switch just to the side of the fan. Your video was freat help 5 stars my friend. Go a little slower M on the screws when you pull them out i got a little confused on what screws went where. Thank tou thank you
Thank you, Your comment save me from spending a couple of thousand dollars on another TV I was having Issues with the lamp (Steady red light) so I order one from Amazon and didn't fix the problem, so I order a different one (A bit more expensive, and hopefully better quality) but figure not to put the plastic cover just to save time in case that the new lamp didn't fix the problem. So instead of a steady red light, now I was getting a flashing orange light so I thought the TV had reached his end, But then somehow GOD direct me to read your comment and Voila! TV is working like new. Thank you!!!
Hello I blew compressed air in my Mitsubishi DLP and fried the Ballast. I'm hoping to replace the Ballast and fixed the problem but thanks to your video I'm going to pull the entire light unit out and clean it!
Hello and Thanks for All you do. I've had DLP TV's for around 20 years now. I just replaced the bulb in the one I have now, Mitsubishi Diamond Series WD-82842, it did burn out. Bought an OEM, worked fine for about a month. My TV, this morning will turn on, but no Video at all, checked the bulb, seems to be fine, no blown filament or glass. Can a bad DLP Chip cause no video or a bad circuit board, or even yet, dust, I have not taken the back out yet? Looking forward to your reply over in Central Florida :)
I did this repair about 7 years ago on a 7 year old LDP TV. I was a little intimidated at first. But the hardest part was making sure I labeled plugs and recorded the disconnection of the plugs to make sure I knew where everything went when putting things back together. One mistake I made, was that I did not screw the DLP lamp door completely closed just in case it did not work and I had to troubleshoot some more. So I plugged the TV in and turned it on and there was NO PICTURE! The TV would not turn on. I assumed I screwed something up with the chip replacement. However, I noticed a yellow light blinking a code on the front of the TV. I looked up the code and saw it was telling me the lamp door was not closed completely. This is a safety feature to prevent you from burning yourself on an extremely hot lamp. When the screw is all the way in, it activates a small safety switch which then allows the TV to turn on normally. I WAS SO RELIEVED and so was my wife. But replacing the actual chip itself was easy. Great video! The TV is now 14 years old and still going strong with a very nice picture. I hope I didn't jinx myself. LOL
Great Video! How about the white and black dot issue as well as a flickering background of white lines? Is this issue associated with having a bad DLP bulb?
Mine just went out for my Mother's TV, so I plan to replace it. The dots were getting bad, but we were just holding on. But, I am going to use your strategies and save some money. Nicer TV's have arrived, but I want to push this one as far as possible. Because Comcast cable box isn't 4k yet, so I'lll upgrade when 4k's get added to our cable box. Again, thank you for really showing us how to save money and protect our family's income. Much appreciated ... Very good job !!!
hi, I watched your videos and they are great ,but I can't fine anything on my particular problem. My TV screen continues to show half screen left side show vertical lines and the other side is normal....i spoke to a expert and he said its the Pcb . I already purchased a lamp and a color wheel
If I heard you right, the dits could be caused by a bad connection at the lamp? My lamp went out and I ordered and replaced the bulb. The tv started working almost instantly, but we started getting white dots right away. Then they got worse to where now it looks like your in a snow storm. Could have I caused it? Or should have I replaced the chip at the same time. Also there was a chip that looks like this chip next to the bulb. In fact. Had to remove the chip to remove the bulb. What chip is that?
what would cause lines across the screen horizontally to happen? It's like the picture is going out. not the dead pixels problem I fixed a couple years ago
Have had a WD-65738 for years and still strong at 8100 hours (knock knock) . I had a problem now with no sound on left speaker. Connected an external audio source to both speakers through the side service holes and both have sound. Is this a board and is it work repairing??? Thanks and great videos.
My 2011 Mitsubishi 65" DLP has worked great thus far. had to replace the bulb one time already, but that;s no big deal. My main issue is that I am hearing a faint whirring sound that cuts off and on like it's a fan winding up and then cutting off over and over again. Could this be a dirty fan, and can I clean like I to my PC tower in order to quiet it down?
HI Tampatec, i repaired the white/black spots on my Mitsubishi 73" DLP few months ago with help of ShopJimmy. now it won't power on. i get a crackling/sparking/ratcheting sound and then nothing. thoughts?
Thanks to videos I have replaced a lamp and a chip in the past on my older Samsung DLP TV. But now sometimes (not always, but more frequently lately) when I turn on the TV I can hear sound but the image is stuck looking like one of those computer-generated 3D art images, with the same mish-mash mostly green image repeated in rows and columns. It seems to correct itself eventually by turning off the TV, waiting 10 seconds, and turning it back on. Sometimes It takes multiple on/off cycles and sometimes I wait longer between turning it back on. Sound familiar at all, and is this an issue for replacing the chip or something else? Thanks in advance!
Hello Tampa tech I have a Mitsubishi 82738 dlp TV I replace the bulb powers on no picture no error codes flashing what could be the problem do you make in home repairs
When I turn my tv on it makes a high pitch noise that seems to rise and fall in volume. It does this for about a minute or so then turns off. The screen stays black with no sound. I’ve checked the lamp and it seems to be fine. Do you think it’s the chip cause I’d hate to waist money!
those are sustain boards in plasma tv, no video but sometimes audio you might get. if you got good dc volts to those boards buy x or y boards at shopjimmy website.
i have a mitsu 1080p, 60735. replaced the dlp chip and it worked great for about 3 weeks and then the screen went black. I replaced the lamp but did not fix the problem and I still have audio. what can i do next. thanx for the help with the dlp chip and this problem as well, hopefully
Do you have a video on how to repair the screen if it's slightly tilted (crocked) picture shows just fine, in fact I just had the chip replaced. I moved the tv to another location, plugged it up and the screen was slightly shift with one side higher than the other.
I have a 62 inch toshiba dlp tv and there is like a floating web or something inside that you can see on the screen which looks like it would be outside but it is inside. IIt looks like a two thin flowers moving in the wind just off center to the right of the screen. Is there a way to get inside to remove the dust from the back of the screen or is something else causing this?
screen is a bit flimsy and pushes inward (causing an hourglass shape to the image) any DIY fixes for this? i was thinking maybe gluing in some wooden dowels, but not sure how well that would work unless there's a common way among the community to fix this :P
Hello i have a toshiba DLP 62HM95 i have had this tv for 11 years the picture was beautiful now its bad the color is it the color wheel or the chip thank you for your time oh the lamp is find
Great video! I replaced the DLP chip on my mitsubishi wd-73735 tv but when I plugged it back in there was only sound and a black and grey bar screen with with horizontal lines. I checked everything 3 times and still can't find if I put something back wrong. Any ideas as to what went wrong? Thanks
I have JVC 65" with strange red or out of color of sync letters in the menu . How do I adjust the ventricle or horizontal holds on this 2003 model AV65WP74 and have a better picture to look at. Kevin.
Is there any way I can just clean the DLp Chip before I purchase one for my Mitsubishi WD73C9 tv I only had this tv for 4yrs , but I had it in storage for 2yrs, I have replaced the bulb twice since I had it
I do not have this TV I have the HL61A750, Had my TV chip replaced by a tech about 3 years ago, it is almost 10 years old now still going strong, The LED's may go out soon I have some on hand about how long does the TV holds the charge after it is unplugged?
I have a mitsubishi DLP with a horizontal rainbow, I changed the bulb hoping that would solve the rainbow and now there is also a rectangular rainbow on the right side in addition to the horizontal rainbow. Any idea whats causing this?
hoping you can help, i have 2 of these DLP TV's, wd-y65 and I'm getting error code 39, i have cleaned all fans, new dip chips, new thermal sensor, still same issue, powers on for 30 sec to a min. then shuts down, solid yellow light, tv will turn back on after reset but just shuts down again, with error code 39 this has me stumped I was hoping to use parts from both to get at least one of them working again, i searched and everything i found online says air flow restriction and to clean it out or thermal sensor and I've replaced them too , I'm starting to think its a problem on the logic board but wanted to check first before i caused any additional problems, any suggestions? thanks rob
Great video. Clear instruction. Step by step. Along with the replacement part from shopjimmy, my TV looks brand spanking new!!!! Thank you so much for this video. Well done!!
Hi. I have a 73 inch mitsubishi tv wd 73733. I am getting a flashing green light, then it goes black. No more lights. When i turn the tv off, i get a steady red light. Wont go off unless i unplug the tv. I have been told that one of the three cooling fans are bad. How do you know which one? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've got a 50" led dlp from samsung. Not only does it have white dots appearing, but there has been a "dark vertcal line" on one edge of the screen for at least a year now. The picture still shows through but it's kinda greyed out. I don't know if both problems are from the same culprit or more than one component is faulty. The tv is probably close to 10 years old. With advances in tv tech, does it really make sense to invest in trying to fix a dlp tv?
I have a VIZIO M260VA 32-Inch Class RazorLED 720p LCD HDTV with red and green dots that cover the screen obstructing the view on startup. After a few minutes they subside and then become widely scattered dots of the same two colors ?
I have a very important question, I just bought my Samsung DLP TV (55" Don't know what model besides it has 3 HDMI Ports PC ports, 3D port and basic ports) and when I turned it on (Don't know if this is a sign of a problem ) the Temp. light is Red solid for a while but then the lamp light (infront) is green and blinking. It makes the sound of coming on but the problem is the screen doesn't work nothing pops up. Any ideas? My guess is the actual lamp needs replaced but I don't entirely know. The lamp lightbulb comes on so could someone possibly help me?
I have an issue with a WD-73833 Mitsubishi DLP 1080p. When I turn it on , the audio sounds like it's popping almost as if it's like a record player when the record player skips the record, idk what the problem is, when I watch a show the audio will skip as if it sounds like it's muting /popping every 5 seconds or so
Use electrical tape and tape down the blue plastic wheel , this will heat up and continue to shut off tv. over and over. Can be very frustrating. Speaking from first hand experience
My samsung hl61a650 won't fully power on. It has power to it. When I press the power button the t.v. powers on. The audio sound starts, the lamp and color wheel turn on. All seems well for about 3 seconds. The lamp quickly turns off and tries to power back on but comes back very dim then turns off completely. The television then goes through a power cycle where it all starts over again. This process happens for infinity till I unplug the machine or active the safety switch for the lamp housing. I've replaced the DMD board, lamp, power supply and ballast. The only thing I haven't replaced are the computer chip and the main board. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Luke
i have a 32 inch lg tv works great except the sound what or where do i look for the problem somtimes i get volume but crackly and hardly hear it iv changrd most capisitors and video board same problem though

I have a wd 73737 mitsubishi tv shuts off after less than a minute. It will turn back on then shuts back off. The red light goes solid red, no flashing. It did start having white spots a few months before this.
Hello, My Mitsubishi 65" is doing the same thing. Comes on, picture shows, ~ 15 seconds later it shuts down. Then I wait about 15 seconds and turn it back in. 15 seconds later... it shuts off again. Help! Curious is you received a response. I didn't see any response to your problem If you fixed yours, would you share what you did? Thanks.

I have a 60 inch Mitsubishi dlp. When I click on button the status light blinks green continuously but screen does not come on. No sound comes from it either. Would I need to replace the chip on it or the lamp?
***** where exactly would I apply the thermal paste? does it just get applied all over the under side of the heat sink? sorry I have no clue about all this lol :)
DMD is video board with dlp chip on it, And DM board is video board too but with video inputs on it, but never heard of DMB board maybe they meant DM or DMD.

Call mits- 800.332.2119 Cause i think that tv's model DMD board had extended warranty. DMD board "might" be free www.city-data.com/forum/consumer-electronics/1162259-white-spots-mitsubishi-rear-projection-tv-9.html
i have 2008 wd65831 -- i get error code 59 which says "dm short detected" -- im thinking its toast but i dont even know what the 'dm' is -- could it be short in fan?
Check to see how dusty your fans are, you might need to use a air compressor to blow them.out, or a vaccum would work w/ the hose. If tou have to much dust on fans it will over heat
I replaced lamp on Samsung dlp. it worked for five hours now TV shuts itself off and on. sound with no picture. any thoughts. thanks so much. very frustrating
Same situation here but with a Mitsubishi but after 1.8 days of continuous use. It shuts off and blinks red constantly or with added fans it just shuts off and stays solid red after replacing the lamp. I just got done cleaning out the entire unit tonight so I am in the process of eliminating dirt and dust build up which would create some problems including this from what people claim on the Internet. So far this is still not a solution though. I will RMA the lamp and then try a new ballast next. If anything works I will let you know. I have searched for hours and found the top 6 things I have found searching for a week are: 1: bad lamp, 2: dirt clogging up or slowing down fans, 3: ballast needs new caps or is damaged, 4: door switch heats up and becomes faulty causing it to stop, 5: the thermal sensor under the color wheel or the color wheel itself needs replacing, 6: resetting lamp timer manually.... I am going to finish testing this to see if I can fix it. If I figure this out, I will post some information.
I have a Vizio 55" flat screen and I had it for a long time and it's been having lines across the tv and just now a quarter of my screen went dark then started blinking normal with a bunch of lines... And right now the quarter bottom came back to normal with a yellow black tint and now it's flashing again... Any way to contact u
Sounds to me like the screen is going dead from forcing in the wrong vertical or horizontal frequency. The T con board is unlikely as it has horizontal lines.. I had several TVs have that issue in the last 10 years. Sadly most TVs are made very cheap and are likely throw away's within 10 years for many people. try googling a new TV with a low number of complaints regarding equipment failure. It is very hard to find any model right now that is not loaded with 5% complaints or more after being on the market for one year. It is time to buy a new TV for you. Your old one is not worth repairing unless you want to spend $800-$1500 on screen replacement they do not even make anymore..
if its cracked it maybe permanent if contacts are damaged but most cases its dirty or dust on sd card contacts or dirt inside sd card port preventing good connection so just blow out dust inside port, but some sd cards have lock switch to prevent deleting data.
HEY GARY, JUST SAW YER POST ON TV REPAIR COMMENTS SECTION AND I HAVE SAME PROBLEM. I KNOW ITS BEEN 8 MONTHS BUT DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT THE FIX WAS AND MAYBE ALSO WAS NOT ? APPRECIATE ANY HELP BRO ! THANX

hoping you can help, i have 2 of these DLP TV's, wd-y65 and I'm getting error code 39, i have cleaned all fans, new dip chips, new thermal sensor, still same issue, powers on for 30 sec to a min. then shuts down, solid yellow light, tv will turn back on after reset but just shuts down again, with error code 39 this has me stumped I was hoping to use parts from both to get at least one of them working again, i searched and everything i found online says air flow restriction and to clean it out or thermal sensor and I've replaced them too , I'm starting to think its a problem on the logic board but wanted to check first before i caused any additional problems, any suggestions?
thanks rob
Great video. Clear instruction. Step by step. Along with the replacement part from shopjimmy, my TV looks brand spanking new!!!! Thank you so much for this video. Well done!!
Hi. I have a 73 inch mitsubishi tv wd 73733. I am getting a flashing green light, then it goes black. No more lights. When i turn the tv off, i get a steady red light. Wont go off unless i unplug the tv. I have been told that one of the three cooling fans are bad. How do you know which one? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is the red light under the lamp indicator or all the way on the right?

I've got a 50" led dlp from samsung. Not only does it have white dots appearing, but there has been a "dark vertcal line" on one edge of the screen for at least a year now. The picture still shows through but it's kinda greyed out. I don't know if both problems are from the same culprit or more than one component is faulty. The tv is probably close to 10 years old. With advances in tv tech, does it really make sense to invest in trying to fix a dlp tv?
I can't imagine oem parts are even available at this point for a reasonable cost.
I have a Mitsubishi 60" that has a washed out screen on the bottom and up the sides. I have cleaned everything and replaced the bulb. Any idea?
I have model WD92840 and I’m getting 6 red blinking lights and 1 yellow blink, then it repeats do you know what the diagnosis is?
I have a VIZIO M260VA 32-Inch Class RazorLED 720p LCD HDTV with red and green dots that cover the screen obstructing the view on startup. After a few minutes they subside and then become widely scattered dots of the same two colors ?
Do you have a video on how to fix a black screen , its on and sound but no images.
thanks, DLP TV lost out quick out to LCD & plasma, LCD or LED is my choice of tv too. but my Next few videos are plasma, lcd and LED tv fixes too. 8^)
Do you have any advice for a wd 82740 dlp tv? Ours has developed black lines on it.
I have a very important question, I just bought my Samsung DLP TV (55" Don't know what model besides it has 3 HDMI Ports PC ports, 3D port and basic ports) and when I turned it on (Don't know if this is a sign of a problem ) the Temp. light is Red solid for a while but then the lamp light (infront) is green and blinking. It makes the sound of coming on but the problem is the screen doesn't work nothing pops up. Any ideas? My guess is the actual lamp needs replaced but I don't entirely know. The lamp lightbulb comes on so could someone possibly help me?
Good Video Bro!
I have an issue with a WD-73833 Mitsubishi DLP 1080p. When I turn it on , the audio sounds like it's popping almost as if it's like a record player when the record player skips the record, idk what the problem is, when I watch a show the audio will skip as if it sounds like it's muting /popping every 5 seconds or so
I did this , but ended up messing with the geometry settings in service menu , do you know how to get the TV back to default settings ?
I just replaced my bulb yesterday. cleaned it all out real good. turned on my set, it comes on but after about 3 to 5 minutes, it shuts itself off
any ideas why
Try resetting and check blue power switch by bulb door. Fixed mine.
Use electrical tape and tape down the blue plastic wheel , this will heat up and continue to shut off tv. over and over. Can be very frustrating. Speaking from first hand experience
@@tmogilnicki buy USB fan plug it in keeps TV from overheating.
My samsung hl61a650 won't fully power on. It has power to it. When I press the power button the t.v. powers on. The audio sound starts, the lamp and color wheel turn on. All seems well for about 3 seconds. The lamp quickly turns off and tries to power back on but comes back very dim then turns off completely. The television then goes through a power cycle where it all starts over again. This process happens for infinity till I unplug the machine or active the safety switch for the lamp housing. I've replaced the DMD board, lamp, power supply and ballast. The only thing I haven't replaced are the computer chip and the main board. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Luke
Luke Tilton Did you ever find out the problem with your Dlp?

Hello,
My Mitsubishi 65" is doing the same thing. Comes on, picture shows, ~ 15 seconds later it shuts down.
Then I wait about 15 seconds and turn it back in. 15 seconds later... it shuts off again. Help!

If you fixed yours, would you share what you did? Thanks.

Thank you you've been great help
Great video guy!
Do u know how to fix if the TV shuts it self off...
Check TV eco energy saving settings but if your TV is over 10 years old it can be bad capacitors in power board. Get TV boards at shopjimmy.com 👍
I get Blue and Pink static on white or gray background during shows and movies.. What could cause that? thx.
I have a Samsung hl67a750a1fxza dlp and once in a while when I turn it on the screens all red tint then goes back to regular picture. What could this be
I have a 60 inch Mitsubishi dlp. When I click on button the status light blinks green continuously but screen does not come on. No sound comes from it either. Would I need to replace the chip on it or the lamp?
Ivon Robledo Did you ever find out how to fix this issue? I have the same problem and I've asked before too but no one ever gives a solution.
Ivon Robledo I have the same problem did you find out what it was?
Should'nt there be some thermal paste between the heat sink and the chip?
true great eye, i will add a speech bubble in thanks, that will help transfer heat away from chip to heatsink using heatsink compound.
***** where exactly would I apply the thermal paste? does it just get applied all over the under side of the heat sink? sorry I have no clue about all this lol :)
my 32 inch lcd and dvd combo has a blank screen flashing black blue red and green what doese that mean? is it fixable?

DMD is video board with dlp chip on it, And DM board is video board too but with video inputs on it, but never heard of DMB board maybe they meant DM or DMD.

What was the problem and the solution.
i have 2008 wd65831 -- i get error code 59 which says "dm short detected" -- im thinking its toast but i dont even know what the 'dm' is -- could it be short in fan?
I need one of these for a hitachi 55 inch DLP television...
I have a mitsubihi 60737 have no power and no stand bye light .I changed the power board and still no power can you help !!!!
TV works fine for about 15 minutes, then makes short high pitched whine and turns off. Recently replaced lamp. Suggestions?
Check to see how dusty your fans are, you might need to use a air compressor to blow them.out, or a vaccum would work w/ the hose. If tou have to much dust on fans it will over heat
I replaced lamp on Samsung dlp. it worked for five hours now TV shuts itself off and on. sound with no picture. any thoughts. thanks so much. very frustrating
Same situation here but with a Mitsubishi but after 1.8 days of continuous use. It shuts off and blinks red constantly or with added fans it just shuts off and stays solid red after replacing the lamp. I just got done cleaning out the entire unit tonight so I am in the process of eliminating dirt and dust build up which would create some problems including this from what people claim on the Internet. So far this is still not a solution though. I will RMA the lamp and then try a new ballast next. If anything works I will let you know.
I have searched for hours and found the top 6 things I have found searching for a week are: 1: bad lamp, 2: dirt clogging up or slowing down fans, 3: ballast needs new caps or is damaged, 4: door switch heats up and becomes faulty causing it to stop, 5: the thermal sensor under the color wheel or the color wheel itself needs replacing, 6: resetting lamp timer manually.... I am going to finish testing this to see if I can fix it. If I figure this out, I will post some information.
i have a 55" Mitsubishi smart tv that wont come on but its blinks 4 red and 8 yellow what can i do to fix it

i have a Samsung 61 white dots and then it just completely cut off is it the DLP chip
I have a Vizio 55" flat screen and I had it for a long time and it's been having lines across the tv and just now a quarter of my screen went dark then started blinking normal with a bunch of lines... And right now the quarter bottom came back to normal with a yellow black tint and now it's flashing again... Any way to contact u
Sounds to me like the screen is going dead from forcing in the wrong vertical or horizontal frequency. The T con board is unlikely as it has horizontal lines.. I had several TVs have that issue in the last 10 years. Sadly most TVs are made very cheap and are likely throw away's within 10 years for many people. try googling a new TV with a low number of complaints regarding equipment failure. It is very hard to find any model right now that is not loaded with 5% complaints or more after being on the market for one year. It is time to buy a new TV for you. Your old one is not worth repairing unless you want to spend $800-$1500 on screen replacement they do not even make anymore..
My TV it'll turn off and I'll see a picture and then then 5 Seconds it turns itself back off how can I fix it

Where do you get the chips
have you ever fixed a micro sd memory card? i really need your help if you've have...
if its cracked it maybe permanent if contacts are damaged but most cases its dirty or dust on sd card contacts or dirt inside sd card port preventing good connection so just blow out dust inside port, but some sd cards have lock switch to prevent deleting data.
After replacing my chip and reassembled. TV will not power up. I have a red static light.
