I took it to a guy who used to repair electronics...he found a blown fuse. I picked up some replacements and am going to see if that works without blowing again.

Too bad the new fuse blew right when I plugged it in....something wrong with the power supply. I can see this will be costing me $400.

If it blew right as you plugged it in, then I'd be investigating the power supply for sure.

Especially with no LED error codes..

Well I found the power supply board online and got it in yesterday...replaced what was in the tv and it came back to life. hooray! The cost was $100 compared to the $400 estimate from a repair shop.

Nice work, How difficult was it to replace?

Not too bad...unscrewed the back...popped off a couple of connectors...unscrewed the board...put the new one in...reconnected the connectors. Took maybe 10 minutes total.

Just had to put a new lamp in my DLP. It was much easier than I expected and cost me only about $85. I can only imagine what a repair shop would have wanted to do it.
