The instructions are intuitive and easy to follow.  If you have any problems downloading the file and/or replacing your lamp, ask your questions here.

 From our knowledge, this enclosure is compatible with the following TVs:

PT43LC14     PT-43LC14
PT43LCX64  PT-43LCX64
PT44LCX65  PT-44LCX65
PT50LC13     PT-50LC13

PT50LCX63  PT-50LCX63
PT50LCX64  PT-50LCX64
PT52LCX15   PT-52LCX15
PT52LCX15B PT-52LCX15B
PT52LCX35  PT-52LCX35
PT52LCX65  PT-52LCX65
PT60LC13     PT-60LC13
PT60LC14     PT-60LC14
PT60LCX63  PT-60LCX63
PT60LCX64  PT-60LCX64
PT61LCX35   PT-61LCX35
PT61LCX65   PT-61LCX65

An IMPORTANT NOTE: Be weary of replacement “lamps” or “bulbs” for the TY-LA1000 sold without the enclosure housing.  Typically, buying the lamp-only is okay, as long as the customer is purchasing an original lamp.  Always stay away from off-brand bulbs manufactured by OSRAM, LTI, APO, or another third-party provider for your Panasonic TY-LA1000.   When purchasing just the lamp itself (even an original), it can be a hassle unless you’re fairly good with a technician’s soldering iron.

Your original enclosure has the lamp cable connectors soldered from it’s terminals to the connector plug.  When purchasing just the lamp alone, you will have to cut this connector and soldering it on your new lamp.  Sounds confusing or difficult?  It is…and until we make a kit for it, I don’t suggest anyone purchase the bare bulb only!

To avoid all the hassle, just purchase the whole enclosure.  For the best price on the TY-LA1000 Enclosure, click here.

    I replaced our lamp on a panasonic PT44LCX65 it says to reset the hour meter but we dont have a PIP button on our remote control and the play button which we tried doesnt do anything to reset the hour meter and the light is still red. Do you have any other way we can try to reset the hour meter?

    thank you for anything that you can suggest

    Same exact problem on TY-La100 bulb for PT50LC13

  3. Alfredo Says:

    I have a PT44LCX65. The button you are looking for is on the bottom row of the remote by the TV/VCR (2nd L to R). It has the word SPLIT and DVD at the topof it.

    HTH!

    merry xmas

  4. richard Says:

    found the button, but now what? sorry, no too good with these things.

  5. Jeremy Says:

    I have a panisonic pt50lc13 tv with no picture and the lamp indicator light is flashing but my TY-LA1000 Lamp looks fine with no signs of being blown like a regular bulb could it still be the bulb ?

  6. Madmize Says:

    Hold volume down button on TV and while continuing to hold that press and hold the button below wher it says “split”.

  7. Madmize Says:

    Solid red lamp indicator is replace bulb. Flashing red indicates other problems, advise contact service center.

  8. Heidi Says:

    Have a Panasonic HDTV and have replaced bulb (ty-la1000), received the on screen message (again)regarding lamp time needing to be reset. Tried the above steps, doesn’t seem to work. I was using the buttons on the remote. Please help…

  11. Steve525 Says:

    I have the same TV with the same problem, did you ever determine how to fix? Did the TV need service? If so how much did the repairs cost?

  12. TC Says:

    Replaced TYLA1000 in housing in my Pana PTLC43. All seemed ok but then a I started getting yellow shades coming up from the bottom. I called the place that sold me the lamp and they say its my “color wheel” having an issue. Anyone else experience this issue?

  13. Chris Says:

    Hold the vol button on the tv itself and on the remote hold the split button by the tv/vcr button

  14. Raul Says:

  17. shepdawg Says:

    I have a Panasonic pt-52lcx35 and my screen all of a sudden became off centered! Can anyone help?

  18. Jonathan Says:

    PT-52LXC65 Replaced the bulb and everything worked fine. Now when I try to turn it on the power light flashes green then it flashes red. Sometimes it works after this sometimes it doesn’t. Usually I have to unplug it and wait and then plug it back in and it turns on again. Now no such luck. Any suggestions?

  19. snails Says:

    I have a Panasonic PT-52LCX65 that takes the TYLA1000 bulb. Had more than 2 years of service before replacing the bulb. The new Phillips bulb lasted 30 days then quit working. The set would not power up and give a picture, and the “replace lamp” indicator would flash red once every 4 to 6 seconds. I didn’t reset the timer when I replaced the bulb but had success when I finally figured out how to do it with the help of this forum.

    1. The TV was unplugged for half an hour, thinking this would clear its “memory,” (don’t know if this made any difference or not.
    2. Plugged it back in and found the original remote (not the cable remote because the cable remote doesn’t have the “split” button on it), that came with the TV. Turned the TV on at the console and pressed the “TV” button on the remote and held it down for 5 seconds until the button flashed.
    3. Pressed and held the “Volume down” button on the console while holding down the “split” button on the bottom of the remote for about 5 seconds.
    4. The picture came on. Then reset the remote controller to “DBS/Cable.” Nice picture with no further problems.
    5. I never saw the screen that says “Lamp hours reset”, like its says in the pdf instructions on this site.
    Good luck to you!

  20. Jerry Says:

    I have a PT-50LCX64 Panasonic bought as a store display model. For months the screen displays “The lamp needs to be replaced. . .” message every time TV is turned on, but the picture is fine. The company says I can’t replace it until its completely gone. How do I disable the screen message and if so, does this affect the warranty?

  21. Byron Says:

    THIS IS WHAT YOU DO TURN THE VOLUME ALL THE WAY UP ON TV (not the remote) THEN BRING IT DOWN TO ZERO STILL HOLDING ON TO VOLUME THEN PRESS THE SPLIT BUTTON . IT WORKS JUST TRIED IT. ps exit the lamp message first.

  22. Carson Says:

    I bought the new lamp and installed it on my PT-52LCx65 but my only problem is that I dont have the original remote that came with the T.V. Is there any way to still replace the meter on my T.V. without the original remote? Please help!!!

  23. Mike Says:

    If your model of TV is PT-52lcx16, do the following:
    Hold the (VOL-) button on the TV and then hold the 0(zero) button down on the remote for 5 secs. That will reset your lamp. This is straight from the TYLA-1001 bulb users manual. Remember, this is only for the TYLA-1001 bulb, the TYLA-1000 bulb has different instructions. I just did this and it works perfectly.

  24. Paula Says:

    IT WORKED!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

  25. Paula Says:

    My husband said i wouldn’t find out how! LOL!

  26. Bruce Cain Says:

    PT-52LCX15. I replaced the lamp but have no instructions on how to reset timer.

  27. Bobsmack Says:

    I have this exact problem at the exact time and date. Did you find an answer? Please let us know.

  28. farhan Says:

    I have panasonic pt-43lc14 hdtv and the picture is not clear it’s kinda yellow. Does this mean I have to replacethe lamp?

  29. Sharon Says:

    I have a Panasonic pt52lcx65-k I am getting a blue spot in the middle of the screen. No lamp light flashing, no warnings of any kind suggesting a problem other then that blue spot in the middle of the screen. Is that the lamp burning out in the tv. Thank u in advance

  30. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Sharon,

    How big is the spot? Can you post some pictures of your screen with the blue spot? Also, you can post your issues on http://www.fixyourdlp.com/forum. Thanks…

  31. NENE Says:

    i need help replacing an locating where my lcd lamp goes in tv model PT61LCX65

  32. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    NENE,

    Go to http://www.youtube.com and type in your lamp part # there is most likely a video on there that can assist you.

  33. Rachel Says:

    It sound like the light engine.

  34. Sharon Says:

    The spot is about 2 inches in diameter. near the middle of the screen closer to the right side. I only notice it when the show I’m watching has white or light colours in that area. The picture shows someone in a dark suit or dark background I don’t see it. I hope it helps. I will try to get a photo of it. Thank u so much for ur reply

  35. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Sharon,
    It may be your DMD board. Your dmd board houses your dmd chip which houses millions of micro mirrors on it. It tilts back and forth very rapidly and the mirrors reflect light onto your screen. So it’s it’s broken or not working properly it can cause your color issues.

  36. Sharon Says:

    So I guess I need someone in to repair it?

  37. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Sharon,

    Is it under warrenty still? How long have you had it for?

  38. Sharon Says:

    I’ve had if for 5 yrs

  39. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Sharon,

    Oh wow and is this the first time your having problems with it? It will be quite expensive to have it repaired just about as much as buying a new TV.

  40. Paul Says:

    I have a panasonic pt-43lc14 and the lamp replacement message has came on. I have a replacement for the bulb (housing included) should I wait until the bulb goes out to change it, will this harm the set if I do. Picture still looks good, no fading or anything.

  41. Davis May Says:

    I have a Panasonic Model#PT-50LC14 and i can not get the blue screen off the TV. I do not have the original remote but i do have a logictech harmony. It has all the features of the original but i just cant get it to work. Should i get original or do you guys have any other ideas?

  42. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Paul,

    You won’t harm your set by waiting until the other bulb goes out. It’s ok to wait until it does.

  43. FixYourDLP.com Says:

    Davis May,

    It’s always best to have the original, but if you can figure how to work your logictech harmony then go for it!

  44. Davis May Says:

    I know how to work it but I dont know if the buttons will work the same. I have the same button options but I just do not want to go out and spend the 50 bucks if i dont have too. I have tried some of the reset options I read but none seem to work. I need to find out how to resrt the lamp. If anyone knows how to reset the lamp timer for this model of TV i would really like to know.

  45. Steven Says:

    I replaced my ty-la1000 and now i smell something like plastic burning after about 45 mins to an hour.

    Any ideas what it could be? Any way I can check to see if it’s the lamp by itself? TV and picture are perfect otherwise.

  46. Josh Says:

    I have the Panasonic PT-60LCX64 which I’ve had now for 3.5 years… All of the sudden I’ve noticed it’s not as bright and the darks/blacks are hard to see.. like on a dark movie, it’s hard to see the picture. The lamp replacement light isnt flashing so not sure what it could be? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  47. Kathy Says:

    I have a PT-43LC14 and just replaced the lamp (TY-LA1000), and I followed the instructions on how to reset it and nothing happens. Can anyone help please?
