Ladies and Gentlemen, I have always likes Mitsubishi My parents aways had good luck with them and so have I until I bought the WS-55813 and ran into the Green blinking light of DOOM! I followed Larry's directions to no avail but it was worth a try. I think it was the picture that I always liked. Anyway I am lookng at the Mitsubishi WD-65735 and was wondering what everyone thought about it and also what kind of issues I might run into. Or should I move on to a different manufacturer. All opinions are welcome.
IMO... with the exception of the very early WS-xxx03 and WS-xxx05 models, the Mitsubishi WS crt rear projectors are considered by many to be among the best color tv's ever made.
Many WS sets are now 3 to 8 years and have thousands to tens of thousands of hours use with no maintenance, when they show signs of needing service, most people ignore the signs and run the set until it fails. Try that with a car...
If, while you were repairing the DM, you verfied that you do NOT have catastrophic coolant leak problems, and if you can find a local tech who knows these sets, you may be better off repairing your 55813.
At the very least place it in Craigslist Electronics for best offer, rather than the landfill.
