A specialized bulb powers projection televisions. The bulb creates the illumination that creates the clear picture. Over time, the bulb will begin to fade or completely burn out. As the picture quality becomes darker or fuzzy, it's time to replace the bulb. Replacing the bulb can be done without calling a professional and requires minimal tools. Replace the bulb immediately to ensure the picture on your projection television is clear and crisp.
-
Turn the television off by pressing the "Power" button once. Allow the unit to cool for 10 minutes. Unplug the television from the electrical outlet.
-
Locate the bulb housing. On most televisions, the lamp door is on the right or back of the unit. Some older models house the lamp behind the front panel. Refer to your User's Manual for the exact location.
-
Unscrew and remove the screws that secure the lamp door in place. Use the appropriate screwdriver to ensure you do not strip the screws. Once screws are removed, slide the door off. You will now have access to the bulb unit.
-
Remove the bulb from the television by grasping the handle and gently pulling the bulb out.
-
Line up the new bulb with the grooves within the lamp housing. Push the bulb unit into the television until it clicks into place. Place the cover back onto the television. Replace the screws to secure the cover in place. Tighten using the screwdriver. The bulb has now been replaced and is ready for use.
