My Samsung model # HL-S6187W TV started humming upon start up last week. I had researched and found that the suspect component is almost certainly the color wheel. I replaced yesterday w/ a new unit, turned on set & no longer humming. However, the set shuts off after aprx. 10-15 seconds, then the "lamp" and "temp" flash and cannot do anything unless unplugged and same thing happens over and over.
NOTE: The cooling fan IS operating. Also, I did NOT install the plastic "fin" vent piece in front of the bulb nor did I install the large rear TV access cover. Had just turned it on to verify color wheel repair and operation before I put those back on incase I needed to get back in there. Any help is tremendously appreciated, thanks so much!
