I changed the lamp successfully but my TV still does not work. The lamp was broken before I bought the new one but when I turn on the TV, it blinks green for a couple of seconds and then blinks red and does not turn on. Help.

First, I would like to thank FIXYOURDPL for providing this DIY service.

I would like to suggest a slight change to the procedure. It is not necessary to fuss around with the lamp-cage spring as indicated in the above procedure. Just look carefully at the spring-loaded handle and you will notice that the handle is removeable. Just carefully spread the ears on the black plastic and you can remove the black handle from the metal U-clamp. You can then easily replace the spring and screw the metal clamp in place. Now all you do is push the lever end (minus the black plastic lever handle) through the last enclosure piece, push the black plastic handle; voila.

Called Discount Merchant back and asked if they have a replacement. They said no, not at this time and referred me to purchase one from Sony till they decide on a replacement.

Regarding the above site to order the bulb, discount merchant.com. It is $139.00
but it says out of stock. When I called to see when they will get them in I was told that they had a lot problems woith the Phillips bulb and they didn’t think they would be restocking this bulb.
It would be great if you could point me to another site where they will have the correct bulb for the XBR1 at this low cost.
