Hello. I own a HL-R5678W DLP television and after being on for about twenty minutes an annoying sound will come out from the back of it. There is no color change or any visual problems with the picture. Is this the color wheel? The sound began when I installed a surround sound system in that shakes the walls. Could a fan or even the...

50" Samsung HLN5065WX/AA tv

My samsung 50" DLP started "Freeze Framing" in black and white. The unit simply freezes up on an isolation picture. The audio still works and you can change the cable chanels but the picture remains black and white "Freeze Frame".

Another Samsung Lamp Question

I replaced the lamp in my HL-R4667W. It turned on no problem, watched it for 2 hours last night. Today after about 1 hour it turned off and the lights are blinking on front again. Can a bad ballast cause the lamp to go out? What about the cooling fan how can I check that? Thanks for any help.

Do you have a noisy DLP Television?

Most people who own a DLP Television that has become noisy think that it is a noisy fan. It makes perfect sense. Clearly the noise is being made by something spinning. More often than not, however, the noise is caused by the television's color wheel -- the OTHER thing in a DLP TV that spins. The color wheel, pictured above, is a small...
