TV/VCR/Stereo Troubleshooting - panasonic rear projection TV


Expert: Allan Wainwright - 1/7/2009

Question
I have a panasonic mod# PT-52LCX16,rear projection tv about 1 year old , and when I turn it on the green light on the power button comes , on and the cooling fan runs for a few, then it goes off it does not ever get a picture or sound. One time I saw the lamp indicator light on, but not all of the time. Could it be the projector bulb or is it something more ? Is there any way to test the bulb? I repair gaming machines with both crt's and LCD monitors but I'm a bit lost on this one.Thanks
Chuck

Answer
odd are it is the lamp in some cases it could be the ballast. there is no real way to test the lamp other than changing it. you can get  a lamp kit onling for under 100.00


Good luck :)
