Larry,

Larry,
I've gained alot of insite after reading all the replies. I have a ws-55857 and have the same power up issue where the green led goes off after a few seconds. my F4 has very high resistence and F5 is completely open. I traced the schem to the conv gen chip. should i repl the fuses first or the chips then the fuses. What chips do I order and what are the part numbers? How and where do I order them from? Do you know the cost? Thank You so much for your help. It's great getting intelligent, accurrate technical advice. If anyone needs the serv manl and schem manl for the ws55857 (covers other models too) just email me at [email protected] i paid 15 bucks , but i'll send it to anyone for free. :)

Thanks to all,
Rob from Too darn hot California

We are also having this

We are also having this problem. My husband used Larry's advice and info to replace the capacitors on the DM board last fall. He'd like to look at all of the things that have been suggested in this thread, but we don't have a service manual or any diagrams for him to reference. If someone has either a service manual or any diagrams that would be helpful, could you please send them to [email protected]? Thank you so much.

Same problem, same set. I would also like a copy of the service manual if it is available. My email is [email protected].
Thanks in advance!

fixed my set by pulling off

fixed my set by pulling off the front cover and turning down the gains then slowly turning them up a little at a time. keep the color ballanced. i have another set i tried this with and the red tube jumps to full brightness then the set turns off. i believe the red tube is bad. you can get the ws-55511 service manual in the resources section of techlore. nobody ever tells anyone about that. had to find it myself.

tony563,

tony563,

Thanks for the heads up on locating the manuals! I'll try what you did and turn down the gains and see if it works. I have replaced the IC chip and ended up with the set not staying on. I checked the resistors and they were fine and the trace leads from each pin of the IC chip read ok so I feel confident that it went back together good - so puzzled at this point at what is causing it to shut down.
Again thanks!

thanks sooo much for the

thanks sooo much for the information and , as an update my ws555111 would not turn on and had no blinking light! i followed the instructions in the
article "DIY-Repair-Replacing-Convergence-IC-s-on-a-Mitsubshi-TV-Set/
it worked perfect and the exact repair was done a year ago by an extemely dishonest repair company. they charged 700.00 and kept the tv for two weeks even though the job they did was done at my home (they left the ic package in on the floor) on day one. ???
anyways thanks again ,Heath

My Television just keeps

My Television just keeps blinking and never stops. All fuses seem ok and I dont see any other visible signs of failure. Does anyone know what else I could check without calling out a costly technician.

I own a Mitsubishi Projection

I own a Mitsubishi Projection TV WS-55511. I have tried to switch the unit on, the green light illuminated for approx 60 seconds and turned off. I then tried to reset the unit by pushing the system reset button on the front as well as unplugging the unit for several hours. The TV still will not turn on. I have checked all fuses which are all good. I have all the standby voltages and no switched voltages. I have 6 volts standby voltage into pin 5 on IC9A22 but not 5 volts switched voltage on pin 3 & 4 or 12 volt switched voltage on pin 2. I do have 12 volt standby voltage on Q9A20 as well as 32 volts on R9A36. Relay K9A50 has 12 volt standby voltage but does not activate relay. I removed the relay from the circuit board and tested and found it to be good. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to repair this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Larry,
My ws55511 blinks the green light for 45 sec. then goes off. The set will not turn on after this from either the remote or front panel. I checked the error code and it came up as a 12 -no error- What should I look at next? I am thinking of buying both repair kits, do you think this would fix it? Any help would be appreciated.

Same issues here, replaced

Same issues here, replaced the convergence IC and all 4 pico fuses. plugged the tv in and it did its blinky light thing for about 30 seconds. i turned the TV on and it worked for about 5 mins while i was adjusting the convergence. then it turned off and when i tried to turn it back on i would get the green light for 2 sec and then it would power off. i could smell something burning/melting but could not pin-point the issue. i rechecked the pico fuses 2 and 3 are ok, 4 is showing a larger 1 ohm resistance and 5 is now completely open. any suggestions on what caused the damage to the 4th and 5th pico fuses?

Larry,

Larry,
I have the same issue as many of these people. I turn it on and it goes of 3 seconds later. Can you send me a copy of the service manual? I know my convergence was going out because the left side of my TV has had the red color out of alignment for about a month. I have just gone ahead and ordered the IC convergence and the fuses but if I had the service manual, it would help. Thanks.
