Re: Samsung HL-R5668W

OK service came out and changed out the whole light assembly, new lamp,
color tunnel etc. He put up a test screen of what should be all white and
there were dark bars starting about mid screen and going to the left before
he changed it, I could only see them during light scenes during play back of
movies or what ever but the tech said he has seen this before but usually
its the screen. After he changed it and he put the test screen up everything
was as white as it could be no stripes etc. So this is what the 100%
warranty does for you.

So now my HDTV is back to as good as it will get until the next generation
comes out and I decide to upgrade.

Thanks for all the help diagnosing my problem, Rich

I have a call into service and I'll let the group know what it was when
it's repaired so someone searching for a similar problem will have this as
a searchable thread and soloution maybe it's something simple that I could
have done by taking the bulb assembly out and blowing it off or something
similar?

What equiment would you suggest to diagnose this, Art? It is a DLP set,
right? Sounds to me like the best test equipment choice would be a good
understanding of how DLP works, a philips screwdriver, and a good pair of
eyes.

Most likely Rich is dead on in suggesting that something is blocking the
light...

Have service come out and diagnose the set, they should have equipment
to check the operations to see if it meets manufacture's specifications.

I have this TV and have a little problem with it, the left third of the
screen is darker than the rest of the screen during certain scenes. I
tried unplugging the unit as was suggested by another post I found and
that didn't do anything. It looks like something is blocking the light
from getting to the screen has anyone had anything like this happen? I'm
going to call for service but was wondering if this is a common problem
or a really rare thing?

Thanks for any advice/help, Rich
