Necessities:
1. A Phillips screwdriver and a flathead screwdriver
2. A Pair of Pliers

3b. A new Philips Lamp FOR SHARP TV Owners (Philips no longer maks a 1.3mm arc lamp)

NOTE: The bulb should be handled with a clean lint-free cloth at all times to avoid any dirt or oil. Our hands are naturally oily…The oil residue from our hands can cause premature failure of the lamp if the front side of the lamp is not wiped down after the installation. It doesn’t hurt to do a final wipe with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth before reinstalling your lamp…
**ALTHOUGH THE ENCLOSURE IS THE SAME, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN LAMP TYPES BETWEEN MODELS**

This guide is for the Vizio W347DD01492 / Sharp ANR65LPX/1 television. Make sure you've got the right lamp! (VIZIO SHOWN) |
|
|
You can see the model number behind the television. |
|
Examine the back cover of the television. You'll need a flathead screwdriver to open it up. |
|
|
There should be 2 screws to remove. Keep them in a safe place! |
|
Use the flathead again to unscrew the lamp enclosure from the housing. |
|
|
Pull the enclosure out of the TV. |
|
You can see how the enclosure fits into the TV and connects to the ballast connector. |
|
|
Examine the lamp enclosure, we'll tackle getting the lamp out next. |
|
The SHARP lamps and the VIZIO lamps are DIFFERENT. Please make sure you replace it with the correct lamp! |
|
|
Use your pliars to remove the nut from the top terminal on the lamp. |
|
Use a small Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screw from the terminal on the side. |
|
|
Here we can see the wire clamps holding the lamp in place. Use needle nose pliers to get to it. |
|
Gently tug the wire down and around the plastic lip. |
|
|
Do the same for the other side. |
|
Handle the lamp with caution! You can now pull the lamp out. |
|
|
|
|
This is the empty enclosure. Note the wires and the wire clamp. |
|
|
Place the new lamp into the enclosure. |
|
Make sure the wire clamps are over the lamp to prevent it from falling out. |
|
|
Do this for both sides! |
|
Note that the lamp will fit in a certain way. |
|
|
Reattach the terminals. |
|
HAND TIGHTEN the screw on the terminal. Excessive torque can break it. |
|
|
The lamp is finally in the enclosure. |
|
Plop it back into the TV... |
|
|
Screw it back in snug. |
|
Close the cover and you're done! |
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: The bulb should be handled with a clean cloth at all times to avoid any dirt or oil. Our hands are naturally oily…this is a no-no for these lamps. It doesn’t hurt to do a final wipe with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth before reinstalling your lamp…
