How can I tell if the lamp or ballast needs to be replaced on my Samsung dlp tv?
My bulb went out and I replaced it. Two months later, the bulb will not come on and I am getting the Indicator lights that show the lamp is out. When I turn on the tv, I can see the ballast in there trying to fire the bulb. I do not know how to tell if it is a faulty bulb or if the ballast does not have enough juice to start the bulb.
Where did you buy the lamp from? Was it a cheap aftermarket bulb or did you get it from Samsung?
Chances are that the problem is the ballast. But if you got a cheap bulb from some no-name place, it’s possible the lamp is dead already! Contact Samsung for assistance and for certified parts!
If you want to attempt putting in a new ballast yourself, here’s a good site for that: http://www.consumermeet.com/entry/samsung-dlp-ballast.html
Good luck!
