Reader Question: Samsung DLP HL-S5687 shuts off intermittenly

If you're new here, please subscribe to my RSS feed. And follow me on twitter. Thanks for visiting!

This tv is about 15 months old and all of a sudden it will shut off.. there are no blinking lights or warnings. I have checked to make sure the timer is off. This could happend randomly anywhere between 45 mins to 3 hours. It appears to be happening more frequently. If you turn the tv back on it comes on agin without problem.. Any thougths?

  1. Steve.. I have the same problem… exactly. If anyone has any solutions for this (us) please email me at cschultes@gmail.com

  2. I have the same problem. I think it is temperature. The hottest days in the house would have this shut off (no images, but sound and remote functions work (just can't see them)). I do not know how to fix this. For me this happened 3 weeks after replacing the Color wheel. Also occured as the room temperature was warmer. cschultes4@yahoo.com

  3. Our DLP is 3 years old. Never had a problem with the bulb or color wheel. We are now having a problem with it turning off after a few hours and then more frequently after the initial shut down. Moved it out a bit from it's cubby top give it more air, but it is still happening. No flashing lights, but when it shuts down we do here a sound from the back that kind of sounds like a cd/dvd turning. Any ideas?
