The lamp works with mercury gas so it has a lifespan of 6000 hours in average. So if your TV is more than 2 years old and if you haven't changed the lamp... then it's most likely your lamp is faulty. Symptoms of a defective lamp are: >Audio with no picture >Picture gets dimmer >Audio and video for a couple of minutes or seconds and then the TV turns off You can learn more about the lamp in the next link: http://www.discount-merchant.com/how-dlp-works-like-magic-a/141.html Note: Also try taking the lamp out and check if it shattered. Good luck! |
