I would say it's most likely the ballast. The 3 blinking lights also could be a lamp. You may want to try a new lamp if the lamp is older since they are to be good for about 9,000 hours. You can check lamp hours under the service menu. With the tv off press mute 1 8 2 power on the remote and its under one of the sub menu's. If the lamp doesn't fix it them most likely the ballast.

Also clean all the vans in the tv. One is in the light engine behind the lamp. One is on the dmd board and one is on the digital board. Use a can of compressed air and blow away the lint and dust.
