				I have had a SONY WEGA Projection TV (Model Number: K-E42A10) for about 4 years now.
 
I recently noticed that the TV would automatically restart after only a few minutes of usage.  I have tried many ways to fix this problem with little success.
 
 
Would anyone have any idea on what the problem may be and possible solutions?
 
Thanks... |

				Does the power light blink when it goes off before eventually turning back on?
 
 
It looks like their a bulb in this thing, how my hours have you used it for? |

				| If the bulb is old, it may be overheating, forcing a restart. Try a swap test with a known good bulb if possible. |

				I contacted Sony support and they recommended getting a new lamp...so I guess we'll find out when it arrives.
 
 
Thanks for the help. |
