When our lamp went, nothing worked (no picture,no sound) and a little green indicator light for "lamp" was on. I bought this lamp and it worked for a brief time but it then the same thing happened. It was within the 30 days so I was able to return it to Amazon. Then I went to Mitsubishi site and bought one of theirs and it works great now, (so far, but it hasn't been that long). It cost $280 (with shipping).

Most Likly, inspect the bulb first if it sounds brooken when shifting it back and forth than its a bulb. If it looks fine and sounds fine it could be something else.

Most of the time if lamp is getting bad you notice slowly the picture getting dimmer and at this time adjusting the brightness has minimal effect. If you notice this pattern then yes change the bulb. Normally the TV do not go black abruptly.

No idea. My tv never went black....just got darker and fuzzier over time but could still watch tv ok. Your issue sounds much more serious.

oh wow, wish I could help but purchased this quite a long time ago.........over a year I think. I have no idea and gave the TV to my step son when I got a new one this year so not sure what lamps worked now. Sorry and best of luck.

You can try going into Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Sound/Manage Audio Devices. You may see speakers and headphones and if you're lucky, you may see your TV is listed. Worth a try.

The square box needs to be hooked up to your TV. Plug the colored tips to the same colored portal on your TV. Batteries need to be put in both the transmitter and your headphones. To hear your TV you push the side button all the way. You need to be almost directly in front of the TV. You'll probably get a radio station or static when you turn it on. Keep pushing reset until a TV station comes in. Make sure volume is set so you can hear it is on. Sometimes you have to turn off and back on until it works or see if you are correctly aligned to the receiver. Reset also changes the radio stations. Can go to Sylvania's customer service and ask for a manual. They take AAA batteries. Good luck. The square box needs to be hooked up to your TV.

Please provide more details. Is TV connected with a receiver or something else? Or was on for a moment then black out?

Hi Treva, it's a regular light show - no black light. There are some pre-programmed shapes, that move around and change colors. Although not black light, the lights will make colors look different. AC

If there's nothing else on ie T.V., radio etc. You can hear it especially at night. Also it stopped working after two years. Can't seem to find anyone to fix it. ...

The problem probably isn't with the T V. I would ask for a replacement for the HD cable box. If you have cable, they will most likely charge you for the switch, Dish does not. I like the T V, but the sound quality sucks. I could add a inexpensive sound bar, but I only use it for awhile, at night, as a bedroom set. Good luck.

If you have the TV connected to a cable box( I have Comcast) you may be having a problem that has happened to me on occasion. Try selecting a different channel and the picture may come back. If the red light in the lower right corner does not blink when you turn the TV on then you might have a power issue. Beyond those simple steps I don't know what else you can do. Find your owners manual and see if there is a troubleshooting guide.

Yes sir. Don't buy this t.v. unless you are watching it strait on. Picture disappears at an angle.

It prob depends on your tv... Look up your tv model and see what type of lamp it needs!

Annie, I have this problem with my flat screen tv and U-verse. BUT, I have a Philips tv. I believe this is a uverse issue. I had 6...yes 6 technicians out here before someone finally said...we just talked about this in one of our meetings the other morning. Apparently there having this issue with a number of televisions. Mine works well sometimes and others it's terrible. Incredibly frustrating. Someone mentioned turning the "backlight" off on the tv. I don't have this option so at this point I'm stuck. Good luck to you.

May ask for a refund due to that it was only a month ago. When I replace our TV Lamp we got a good lamp for the TV and still working today. I think they may have send a bad lamp they should send you a lamp for free and give your money back due to information you give me for good customer service. Sorry to hear that. Here is a customer number for amazon live person to talk to U.S. and Canada: 1-866-216-1072Spanish Support: 866-749-7538

No picture at all? Hold down power button for 10 seconds to allow tv to reset itself or, unplug it for a few miniutes and let me know how that goes. Have you replaced the lamp recently or opened the back panel at all? if so, make sure it's back correctly. My problem was the power strip cable, now, I connect the tv directly to the wall and have no problems.

Your power source or the bulb...if you have noticed the picture dimmer than usual, replace the bulb and don't buy a cheap one..get the mits..otherwise ck all your power cords.

That is something that would most likely be in your TV's menu. Try finding the menu button on your TV remote, then find the picture setting. There should be an option to decrease brightness in there.
