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-LA1500 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 is
located in the front of the TV behind the left speaker panel that will pull
off.There will be a lamp door with a
label on it.The lamp is located behind
it and make sure to allow proper cooling time before removing your old lamp.
2)There are four
screws that secure the metal cover of the housing that need to be removed. Remove the two screws that secure the lamp
connector.Remove the two screws to
release the metal brackets that hold the lamp down.Remove the lamp and connector attached to it.
Seat the new lamp into the position of the old one with the leads that it comes
with still attached.Seat the lamp
connector in the correct position and secure it with the two screws the old one
used.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. Replace the two metal brackets and
screws to secure the lamp in place.Place
the metal cover back onto the housing and secure it with the four screws
previously used. After reinstalling your lamp into the TV, completely
reassemble the TV.All lamp doors or
anything else removed to remove the lamp from the TV must be replaced before
plugging the TV back in and turning on.Failure to do so will not allow the TV to turn on properly.

the PLAY (PP OR PIP) button on the remote control at the same time for more
than 5 seconds.
3.When
the reset procedure is complete, the screen will show LAMP TIME WAS RESET TO
