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 UX21514 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.
Use your
TV’s user manual to help you find and access your lamp housing.If you do not have the TV user manual, you
can download and/or view it on the TV manufacturer’s website.
2)The metal
casing can be removed by sliding it off.Note the metal clips that seat in holes of the plastic casing for
removal.There is a metal bracket around
the lamp connector that needs to be released by removing the one screw holding
it in place.Note how the metal bracket
is seated in the housing for reference when putting it back on later.Now free the lamp connector from the
housing.There is a metal bracket
surrounding the lamp that has one visible screw that needs to be removed to
free the lamp.Note how the metal
bracket is seated in the housing for reference when putting it back on
later.If there is plastic spacer
underneath the lamp, please remove it before putting the new lamp in.Turning the lamp housing upside down should
make this spacer just fall out.
3)To remove
the leads on the lamp, remove the nut and washer from the lead at the top of
the lamp and remove the screw on the second lead which is located on the side
of the lamp.Install the previously
used leads on the new lamp by screwing the nut and washer in place to secure
the first lead 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. The second lead will screw in place on the metal tab on the side of the
lamp.IMPORTANT:Please secure the
metal tab on the lamp with your fingers while installing the screw because
excessive force may break the lamp.Damage to the lamp through installation will void your warranty.Place the new lamp in the position where the
old one was and secure it down with the metal bracket and screw that was
previously used.The metal bracket may
bend slightly when you completely tighten the screw and that is typical.Put the lamp connector back where it was
previously on the plastic housing and secure it with the metal bracket and
screw used before. 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.Please reference your TV’s user manual to
reset the lamp timer.
