A buddy of mine told me about this problem with his tv, so I told him I'd check with this group - television plays fine for awhile (didn't say exactly how long), then the lamp failure light blinks and the set shuts down. After sitting a bit (cool off), it will start back up and repeat the problem. If he puts a fan blowing directly where the lamp is located, the set will play no problem. I am going to check fan/fans for operation and any obstructions in the area, but I wanted to know if any techs have seen this, with this particular model. Does the fan run continueously or is it temp controlled? Thanks in advance group.
