Experience
In order to properly assist you, it is very important that you provide the Model number of the television and the year it was manufactured. You can find this information on the back of the TV. Please also let me know if you are trying to fix the unit or just need to know the cost for repair. If you have a digital camera, and know how to solder and use a meter, I can help you fix your unit in most cases. BY THE WAY, THE PICTURE IS OF MY OLDEST DAUGHTER.

Subject: Mitsubishi 52725 blinking power light

Question
I have a fast blinking power light (green) that came on after turning off the tv last nite. Now the tv will not turn on at all. THe manual called for a system reset on the front panel, but that didnt work. It does have the original bulb and I think that may be the problem, even though the bulb light on the front panel isnt lit. I know that the bulb timer may have been reset during power outages and therefore, not be an accurate indicator of the actual hours on the bulb. Im aware that 4 years of normal viewing is about average for a dlp bulb to last. But $200+ for a bulb alone, Im wanting to be more sure that will fix the problem. Question; will a bad bulb cause this type of problem that prevent a system reset procedure from resetting the tv? If you dont think thats the problem, what would be a likely cause?
Thanks for your help,
Mike

Answer
the lamp will not do this. i can tell you this is a bad DM module and in most cases the board must be shipped off for a repair. this cost is high 600-700 for the repair. in some cases the board can be repaired but i do not recommend it.
good luck :)
let me know if you need more info or help?
