First of all don't forget to read you TV manual, it will explain on how to step by step. I had to go by the directions in the manual on how to remove the all one and another page to replace the old bulb with the new one. It took a little while to do. Good Luck!

I have not had that problem, sorry hope you find out what it is, maybe its normal for your TV.

Check the filiment for broken pieces. Also, do not touch any of the glass on the bulb with your hands. It causes hot spots that decrease the life of the bulb. I think you have a bad bulb. The green is from the computer doing a current check. It sees an open and shuts down. Good luck

We did the same thing. When we replaced the cover it worked fine. Cover has to be replaced.

Your power supply to the bulb may have gone out, but that does seem to be too much of a coincidence to go out now. I would personally try another bulb even though it means spending more money. If it is the power supply that has gone out to that bulb, from what I hear you will probably want to consider getting another television set because they are extremely expensive replacing or to repair the very sensitive and very specific power supply. There are no generic power supplies for the TV set as far as I know. Notice all the varying ratings. I notice the latest ratings are mostly all negative. When I replaced my bulb September of last year, it was provided by another distributer than is now through Amazon. That may have something to do with the quality issues and I would be willing to bet your bulb was dead on arrival. Use Amazons email to see if you could send it back for exchange. I did not notice what kind of warranty was offered. You should get at least 14-30 days replacement period for defective merchandise.

I only know about my Sony television. I installed my new lamp and went to the menu and chose 'New Lamp Replacement" and It installed itself ...that is all Bev

Does it blink green then go away totally and then the red light stays on or just no light period, and is there sound during this ? Because I changed one out and it blinked as you say then went to red and was defective bulb. So I sent it back for a replacement. Another time I replaced one and it did something similar and I think it wasnt making a good connection so I took the bulb out and used attachment to vaccum out all the dust that had accumulated back there and re-installed bulb and it worked great.

No there is nothing you are doing wrong as long as you know the lamp works so should the bulb. It looks like you have recived a faulty bulb just as i did.

I'm not sure why you are getting a red light. My light (on the back) is green.

When properly working the two green lights and top red light on each side will be lit. any other combo will indicate an issue with power.

There is a small internal device that acts as a starter to make the bulbs light up. It sounds like that starter has gone bad. Contact Flowtron and send them the unit for repair.

I just plug mine in the red light comes on and then I leave it there till I need to use it. Yours might be defective...

Try taking the bulb out and re-inserting it in its setting or even a new bulb.

Sounds like it might be a bad power transformer, or possibly the LED bulb itself. You should file a warranty claim for this problem, I think. If out of warranty, take the power transformer to Radio Shack and have them match it (and the connector) for a replacement; that might fix it for you.

check your secondary fuse box if you plugged them in wrong originally it well blow the fuse (easy way to tell is plug old bulbs back in and see if you have break lights)

Which bulb are you referring to? Is it the switch bulb or your own lamp? If its your lamp check the jumpers in back and you have it plugged into the correct plug. There could also be a short inside these are made in china so not the best in quality but they work.

I m very satisfied with my replacement.I make sure it cut off and turned down, so that it will charge properly, so the green light will turn red. God bless you.

You have to make sure you screw the light bulb on right if not it will not work. I had the same issue.

I've noticed mine does not start up very well. Twist the bulb as if removing and then reinstall. It won't start immediately. Also, the indicator is not an LED like it looks, just a lens to the inside. Turn of the lights or shield ambient light, it might be on, you just can see it.

Are you sure you have the right bulb for the socket? Mine just snaps in with a push and stays in by itself. I haven't had to do anything with it since I put it in and it's working great.
