-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just found this site and I'm really in need of some advice. I bought a Samsung HLN50651X 50" DLP last year. It has been working well. I'm in the military and just moved to Okinawa Japan. I had all my stuff shipped over and received my tv today. I hooked it up and it worked fine for a minute then the screen went black. I still get audio but no picture. The lamp indicator on the front blinks and after a minute or so, you can hear the tv try to reset, the lamp indicator goes off then it tries to turn on again, then the lamp indicator starts blinking again. I pulled the lamp out and I'm not sure if it's burnt or not. When I look into the lamp, there's a wire on the inside (I'm assuming like a filament)that runs from the side to the middle. In the middle of the bulb there's a glass cylinder of some sort with a wire coming up from the middle of it. The 2 wires cross each other and touch, but they are definitely two seperate wires. Should they be, or is it supposed to be one continuous wire? I would really be greatful for some advice. I don't want to order a new lamp if that's not the problem.
