Purchasing
the lamp only and replacing the bad lamp in your existing housing is a
very cost effective way that can save you up to hundreds of dollars.
The lamp installation is simple and takes only minutes to complete. The
plastic housing surrounding
the lamp is completely reusable. Picture quality and brightness will
not be affected by reusing the housing. We can safely say that because
we have thoroughly tested this
on every lamp we give advice on. If you do purchase the complete lamp
in housing you should have your old lamp housing recycled because it
contains mercury. It is also against many state laws to throw this
product in the trash. It is highly recommended when you purchase a
lamp replacement to buy a factory original OEM
(original equipment manufacturer) lamp. The two manufacturers of lamps
that TV companies use are Osram and Philips. Some
companies may debate
that Philips lamps are better than Osram or vice versa, but that is
only opinion (or sales tactics) as there are no statistics proving
one is better than the other. We have extensively tested (over 25,000
testing hours) each brand and neither
performs better or lasts longer than the other. Purchasing a lamp
of
any other brand is an "OEM compatible", generic, or aftermarket lamp
(DNGO, APO). This is not advised because these lamps have a fraction
of the lamp life and can possibly damage your TV.
Detailed written instructions and a video of the lamp installation are for provided below showing how to replace the lamp in the TY-LA1000 housing.
1)
Please use the included latex-free glove when handling the
lamp.Failure to use the glove during
handling may reduce the life of the lamp.The TV must be unplugged from the outlet before removal of the
lamp.It must stay unplugged until you
are completely finished.
The lamp
door is located in the front of the TV.The TV has a front cover that pulls off to expose the lamp door.Ensure proper cooling before removing the old
lamp.
2)Lay the
assembly lamp down. There are two Philips head screws in the corners opposite
the plastic handle.When looking at the
metal side of the housing opposite the plastic handle, insert the screw driver
in the top hole, there is one screw. The metal housing should now come off by
lifting up on the housing.Please note: You will need to reuse the
existing connector from your housing. Cut the leads off of the lamp. Make
sure to cut them close to the lamp, so you have plenty of wire.Take out the two Philips head screws and take
out the metal brackets and one metal piece under the bracket. Discard the small
upright piece that is under the top bracket.
3)Place the
new lamp in the housing. Screw the brackets back in to hold the lamp.Bend the wire around the screw that goes in
the side of the lamp and screw it in, clamping the wire down. Hold the tab that
you are screwing the screw into so you do not break the filament. Repeat with
the nut on the top of the lamp.The post on the top of the lamp is very fragile. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN AND USE CARE OR DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. Companies will not warranty installation damage. Reassemble
the cage and insert into television.Put
TV completely back together and plug into the wall outlet.
4)Reset the
lamp timer with the following procedure depending on your model TV. PT-50LC13/PT-60LC13/PT-50LCX63/PT-60LCX63/PT-43LCX64/PT-50LCX64/PT-60LCX64.1) Make sure the TV is on.2) While pressing and holding down VOL DOWN button on the TV, press and hold down PIP button on the remote until a message
