mitsubishi wd52525

I have two mitsubishi dlp close to the same model as each other, one is wd52525(2005), the other is the 52" of 2003 model almost identical set(free). My wd52525 is doing the purplish pink vertical and sometimes diagonal lines on any output. The 2003 is turning itself off after abou an hour, this is the reason it was free, I am experienced enough to solder and would like as much info as possible before i tackle these 2 sets, hoping to get to good sets by just replacing caps. any extra info would be great too, i know these sets are problematic but if i can fix them with just replacing caps then thats fine with me. Thanks in advance for any help.

On the one that turns itself

On the one that turns itself off try pushing and holding device and menu on the tv for six seconds untill the light starts blinking,count the number of blinks and report back.

well went to go do that and i

well went to go do that and i havent had the tv plugged up for about 3 weeks now, so i go to plug it up and then only thing it does is blink a bunch like normal when first plugging up but a few seconds into the blinking it clicks in the back and turns off and tries to repeat the startup but does the same thing, the last time i tried it it a few weeks back when we first got it, it wouldnt do anything but blink when i plugged it up so i hit the reset and then it powered on so i just turned it back and unplugged it and havent touched till now. like its stuck in a start up loop or something is this the caps on the pc board, thanks for the quick response.

please help me with the tv

please help me with the tv that doesnt power on, i pretty much know whats wrong with one doing the wavy lines and have gathered alot of info on how to do the caps. but this one that seems to not power up right, i cant tell if this a cap problem or not, just wondering if anyone knows for sure before i go and buy caps and replace them and that not be the problem, thanks

Go to the technicians corner

Go to the technicians corner and get the manual for v26 chassis look on page 12 find the pwr dm board take the tv apart and see if the caps on that board are bubbled.

ok, i also have the service

ok, i also have the service manual for this set, so i should be able to manage the repair, thanks for you help.

Ok, i took the tv apart, and

Ok, i took the tv apart, and i really hope i remember where everything goes what a mess, anyways, my FMT board has 4/4 swollen on the top caps, and the Power Board has 3/4 swollen on top caps, the DM Board has no swollen caps but will probably replace them anyways as recommended.  my thing is will the caps being a little swollen like that cause the system to not power up, it gets stuck in startup loop or something, it blinks when plugged up but it only blinks for a few seconds instead of the minute and then it shuts off and tries to do it again and again until i unplug it and resetting doesnt work either.

also forgot to ask since i

also forgot to ask since i have had to go this far with it, is there any other caps i should replace, and is the 1000uf 16v to be replaced with 1000uf 25v and does high temp matter as in should i get the 105 degrees caps to replace them with, thanks in advance, really hoping i can get this thing back together right, i can solder but geez there is so many wires and screws, lol, good thing the tv was free.

Also just noticed that the two 3300uf caps on the power board have already been replaced with 3300uf 25v, is this ok to leave they are not bulging or leaking, the warranty stickers were off the set so i figured something had been done before, and there were scuffs inside where the chassis had already been previously removed.

The ones on the dm will keep

The ones on the dm will keep it from comming on. How many times does it flash before it shuts down? Replace all of the swollen caps and the one on the power board that isn't but will be. You should replace the dm caps swollen or not.The high temperature caps are just better quality and easy insurance. what board is the 1000uf caps on? One of these http://m.radioshack.com/radioshack/product/detail.do?itemId=2062731 will help you greatly and they are fairly cheap.

ok so i replaced the 12 caps,

ok so i replaced the 12 caps, all were swollen except 5. put it all back together, checked all grounds and made sure i hooked them up and all plugs, i couldnt find a connector for a PA conncection but read somewhere that it isnt used. also couldnt find a connector for some wires with a CC on it, but it connector doesnt look like its ever been used(no slide marks from previous connection). anyways problem is now i get a yellowish orange blinking light with code 32, but does not ever blink green like normal when first plug it up. any thoughts on this, the cap replacement went smoothley so i cant think of anything i would have messed up. Ty in advance, forgot to mention it is my lamp indicator that is blinking the yellowish color not the status.

well i took the cover off the

well i took the cover off the power supply board and started ohming fuses and all were fine except F9A06, does this mean one my IC's are bad?

evil
You have dlp-digital light

You have dlp-digital light processing tv you don't have convergence ic's in the typical since. Any yellow blinking lights means you have cover doors off or open, lamp ect.

notrubskwah
thank god there are no ic's,

thank god there are no ic's, but lets say the door is closed, because i havent touched the lamp compartment and before i took the tv apart it came on once after having to reset it due it wouldnt quit blinking the green light. i will check again though but is there anything else that could cause this error.

I've heard of some of these

I've heard of some of these sets warping the door so that it doesn't make contact with the switch try defeating it by removing the door and manually pushing and holding the switch.

notrubskwah
ok, but what about the fus

ok, but what about the fus F9A06, i ohmed this and it flips out on the readings, on all the others i get 0, do i just replace it and assume that the capacitors is what took the fuse out and do i just buys these like at radio shack, it is one of the little white rectagular fuses, tiny thing, its going to be fun get that off and on, thanks for the info so far

It says server can not be found for the link.

i am trying to fix it, i dont

i am trying to fix it, i dont know what it is doing, i am using the link it says to use, it is the fuse that is to the left of the caps on the power supply board that had to be replaced, it is a 4 amp koac little white rectangle fuse, i will keep trying with the link, i cant get the insert a pic.

Under quick reply there is a link that says or go advanced then at the top where you post there will be a link that looks like a picture or frame or.... you can use that to post pics.

notrubskwah
ok, did you use the link in

ok, did you use the link in my last post it works i tested it before posting, i got to where it would supposedly upload the picture but it never showed up in my posting so i resorted to a link instead. thanks

It almost looks like a disk

It almost looks like a disk capacitor that's in the red rectangle. Are there any words or numbers on it? It gets a little blurry when I zoom in on it.

You may have to resize the

You may have to resize the picture before you post it on here. I don't think it does it for you.

according to the board

according to the board numbers its a fuse, and there are several of them on there just like it but they are fine, F9A06, thats its number there 8 or 9 of them i think, my camera dont do so good on close pics. i have been thinking about it though, the fuse has 12v in and 12v out dont that mean the fuse is fine, whats causing it to not recieve the 125v like its supposed to have i wonder.

That's where the schematic

That's where the schematic comes in handy I'll look for a more in depth schematic than the one we have on file. Give me a few days to see what I can come up with.

notrubskwah
ok, i wish i had one more in

ok, i wish i had one more in depth than what is in the service manual or that as good as it gets, in the mean time i am going to crack the chassis back open and make sure the dmd and lamp fan plug is ok and test more fuses and such, this tv powered on once before i done the recap job so i hope it wasnt me messing up something, because i still have the second tv to deal with too, i should be pretty descent by then, lol.

evil
Well I found a better

Well I found a better schematic, that link to the fuse was of a surface mounted variety, it comes off of a 12 volt line from a transformer. I think your just chasing your tail on it. I'll try to have it on the site within a couple of days. I think you should look at the lamp fan voltage while it's coming on or the dmd it seems like I remember something about a temp sensor going bad on these but I don't remember what code it throws.

i found the plug that feeds

i found the plug that feeds the two fans that arent working and it is on the power supply board, it is the PK plug on the right at the top of the board 2nd from the right, it has 6 wires 3 for each fan, i will try checking for voltage later, i thought i would just let you know what i found out, sounds like something is still messed up on the power board though,thanks again for your help

Just out of curiosity have you replaced any caps on the power board?
