Hi All,

I bought a Samsung HLS5686W about a month and a half ago although I did not hook it up until a couple of days ago when I moved into my house. Everything was working fine until last night when it just went off by itself. When I try to power it back up the Lamp light blinks for about 15 seconds, stops very briefly, and then blinks for another 15 seconds, then goes out. I get no picture although I can see the lamp on when I look in the back. After a few minutes the red standby light goes back on. I'm going to call Samsung for service, but does does anybody have an idea what this could be?

Thanks.

I purchased a HLP 5663w 8-04. Set had problems from the start. Took approx. 4 weeks to repair after having the thing only 2 months or so. Vertical white lines appeared on the screen. Had to replace board 3 times to repair.

Now the light engine has gone out....this was a $2400 set and they expect $1200 to repair?!?! Have talked with Samsung repeatedly and they refuse to stand behind their product.
