HLN5065W Power on issue

[RocketMan]

Have a problem with my DLP and I hope some of the experts here can help me out.

The problem is intermittant and unpredictable. I turn on the set and the fans come on. I get the chimes. After that, nothing...no whine. Seems the color wheel may not be coming on. It tries the three more times and then I get the three lights of death. Unplug the set. Wait a bit. Plug back in and turn on. Sometimes the set goes on, sometimes it doesn't. If it goes on, it may work days without a problem and then it returns. Could it possibly be the color wheel that is the problem? I'm leaning to think that it is. I've confirmed that the bulb is working...it does eventually come on. Any thoughts?

Thanks for all your help!

This sounds like just a bad lamp, have you replaced one recently???
