Lamp changed, ballast changed color wheel changed

Postby TerryD » Wed Oct 26, 2011 3:42 am

Help.
Several months ago I change the color wheel in my Sampsung model HLN507W1X/XAA. Everything worked until last week when the picture did not come on after 3 tries, and the 3 lights on the front were blinking. I went online and found that the problem was probably the lamp. So I replaced the lamp but no picture. Just a groaning sound every time the TV attempted to come on. So then I replaced the ballast. Same result - 3 blinking lights on the front which is supposed to indicate a bad lamp. What do I do now? I am at my wits end. This TV is about 7 years old and now that it doesn't work my wife reminds me that her suggestion was to throw it out and buy new. Please help.
