Why is the picture still yellowish/green with the new lamp?

Depending on what model Sony you have it may be your television . Some models have a known issue and there is a class action suit against Sony . I had the problem you are describing some years ago . it was fixed under warranty. Sony also extended the warranty of the affected models . Do a search of your model number and see what comes up .

the yellow/green tint is a known issue with the projection mechanism. mine was fixed under warranty, which was extended by sony for this issue. I don't know if the free fix is still available. if you search your model number a bunch of stuff will come up. good luck!

Sony had a problem with some of their rear projection TVs. Mine was repaired under warranty

I had the same issue with the lamp. I tried 3 different ones including the one Sony sells. All were bad. Had to change the TV.

I think it's when you turn the power on and the light is red instead of green. Just happened to me. I changed the batteries and the light turned green.

If your picture is dim then a new lamp should make it like new again. It is doubtful anything other than a degraded lamp would cause a dim picture. I wouldn't expect to get a refund if the lamp works. I bought one but really couldn't tell a difference. I don't know if the TV just didn't need a new lamp or that the off brand lamp isn't as bright as an OEM lamp. Personally, I'd stick with OEM Sony parts. They cost more though.

did the tv do this before the lamp was replaced? Same results using the old lamp?

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.

I see the other answer and I agree it is mainly white - it is 2700 so there are yellow/green tones too, but not terrible like some others

No, it doesn't look yellowish in my HDTV using this VGA cable. I would double check the color settings on your HDTV first to make sure your cabel is not defective.

Could be the lamp for sure. Is not likely if you replaced the lamp with the cage as one. Can be caused by the Color wheel being bad as we'll. never touch the lamp and always replace with the cage if you touched the bulb with bare fingers wipe it dry with alcohol to clean the finger oil off it. Hope helps you!

I found there to be a bit of a green tint when I first turn it on, but it resolves after it warms up a bit. Not a big deal to me. Perhaps my green is your blue with a bit of yellow thrown in??

I received the correct lamp when I ordered mine. However, I cannot remember whether the picture was representative of the product or not at the time of my purchase. Good luck.

it's yellow, i prefer this yellow over the energy saver bulbs. It's perfect for a bedroom/living room setting.

yes, after installation, the green light blinks and blinks, the the yellow light come, saying lamp. I have used the reset button on TV, this does the same thing. What am I doing wrong? help! help!

at http://genet.gelighting.com/LightProducts/Dispatcher?REQUEST=COMMERCIALSPECPAGE&PR;ODUCTCODE=21739 , it shows that it's 2700K, which is a yellowish color. Mine only worked for a short time, and I remembered it as being more white, but I guess not.

Dear JT-I would say that the lamp shade is medium green, however, the green appears to be darker near edges. I can send photos if you like. Contact me at gfegley@hotmail.com if you want photos. All the best, Glenn F.

I just posted a photo showing the switch in the off position. The photo came out sideways, but you'll see the little green dots lit up to the point where the brightness had been set just before you turned the switch off.

Did you tried to reset to factory settings first to have the base settings? From there set up the picture contrasts color and brightness.

It's yellowish, though it's not useful... too weak. If there is enough lighting in the room you may not need the light from this mirror.
