+Florica Rascol HI Florica, I ordered my replacement lamp from www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007CJPAFC/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B007CJPAFC&linkCode=as2&tag=bravandgrac-20 Hope it helps!
Mr. Shawn All is well with my tv and it's been about three years.
This was a GREAT video in removing / replacing the lamp!!! I found that the hardest part was removing the screws from the old lamp in the TV. This video gave me some ideas about grabbing the screw and turning it without a screwdriver.....and YES it came out!! I was about to give up and call a repair man until I saw this video. THANK YOU!!!!
You are welcome! Thanks for the comment...makes me happy to know the video is helping.
really glad my video is helping lots of people fix their own TV's!
It certainly is, thanks for this video :D
Thanks - just worked for me tonight.
My TV is back! Woo hoo!
replacement worked like a charm thanx to your instructions. pulling the old bulb out took a few seconds and the 2nd plate removed has to be installed to confirm the bulb installation. Plus my mirror had some smudges on it - toasted dust maybe? wiped it off with a tissue.
what is the model # of your Sony
mine is kds60a-2020..looks easy enough.did your TB for or were u getting lamp reminders??
thank
Thanks for making this video. Just a note for anyone following it -- you do NOT need to remove the back panels. I almost made this mistake, then realized that the diagram in the manual was only referring to the thumbscrew that you can loosen with a penny. Just leave the other 3 screws in the back panel alone and loosen the thumbscrews in both back panels only. The front panel can be removed while the back panels are still securely attached.
Thanks the great demo. 3 years ago I paid a TV repairman $275 for parts and labor. This time we ordered part from Amazon for $25 and did it my self with your video. This would have been impossible with the SONY owners manual (it was terrible).
Thanks again
I am an electrical engineer. The instructions in the manual were useless. I went on line and found your video. Excellent. Thank you for taking the time to post.
M :)
Thanks Gail I appreciate the step by step process. I could not find the lamp, and I did not have a manual. Your tutorial walked me through it.
Thanks for the video! My Sony was collecting dust in the attic for 8 yrs then I followed your video and replaced the lamp with a generic and cheaper bulb, but it worked! 10 months now and still looks good. It's in my garage now so me and the gang can shoot pool and watch tv!!
Thank you so much! Your video's been saving is 100s of dollars everytime we think we have to buy a new TV. We love our wega that's been passed on to us but it has this lamp burnout issue. Nothing can beat the quality of the good old fashioned TV. The new LED TVs look like enlarged cell phone screens!
So pleased my video has been helpful in replacing the burnt lamp on your Sony.
Thank you, well done. This was just what I needed. Please remember to shoot all future videos in landscape mode (wide) rather than portrait mode (tall) to avoid wasting most of the screen. Carry on!
Thanks George! This was my first shared youtube video... so didn't know about the landscape mode at the time... but I know now. Thanks! Hope your sony lamp replacement went well!
Thank you for the video! The replacement lamps have gotten cheaper but the fix is the same!
You are very welcome! Very happy my video helped you fix your TV.
This video Is simply superb!! The clarity of the step by step, with very helpful commentary truly is fantastic. I am not a technological person but I could follow this with ease and success! This allowed me to save so much by not having to buy a new TV!!!! I was able to replace the bulb ON MY OWN!!!! No service call, and left me pretty proud I could do it. If not for this video, I could not have done this and would have spent a lot of $$. THANK YOU!!!!!!
Glad it was helpful! Really appreciate your lovely feedback.
Thank you so much for this video! You helped me fix my Sony Wega. I was ready to give it away. I didn't know how to take it apart until I watched your video. You gave excellent step by step instructions on how to replace the bulb. Now my tv is like new again.
Makes me so happy that my little video has helped you save your Sony Wega! They really are great TV's.
This was the best demonstration. I love your voice...very calming. I'm ordering the lamp today from Amazon.
It worked! Thanks, you saved me like $1,000 in TV replacement costs!
Hello Gailann, thank you so much for taking the time to make this most helpful video. We were about to go out and spend lots of money on a new TV, but thanks to you, we saved the mula. Your directions are great. You are awesome for thinking of others and sharing your experience and knowledge. In gratitude, Mary
Thanks for the video, I changed my lamp in less than 15 min. - working great now! The step-by-step instruction made it easy ... like another commenter, I did not have to take off the two back panels, just had to loosen the screws using the penny and the front panel still popped off.
I recommend that everyone try getting your hands on one of these older TVs because they are LCD TVs. Try to avoid the newer LED TVs for as long as you can because the LEDs have many bulbs that can burn out and very hard to replace. This is just one easy change. Nice !
Mine was the same model as yours so I got really excited. I had no clue. We were looking at new TVs. Thanks for sharing this. Really clear instructions! You're awesome!!
Gailiann,
Thank you so very much for this tutorial! I am not technical at all but diagnosed that our TV's lamp was out, bought a replacement on Amazon and watched your video. Listen all, if I can do it, you can do this.
I just changed mine after 11 years and only cost me $8 at Amazon.com. Thank you so much !
Which lamp did you order?
I want to thank you for sharing this video. You gave me the confidence to attempt changing our Sony lamp myself. I have found the lamp, now need to research the exact model TV we have, but after seeing you fix yours I feel I too can fix mine. Thank you very much!!!
I was able to replace the lamp by following your instructions. I have the same model like yours. Thank you for the tutorial.
I’m very happy to know that my instructions helped you, Betty. Thanks for taking the time to let me know. 💕
AWESOME instruction video. I watched your video and then replaced the lamp in my 42" Sony TV.. It was easy to replace the lamp after watching your instructions.Thanx so much :)
Thank you so much for your video. Speaking very clear made it easy to replace my bulb and follow your instructions at the same time. Most of all you saved me a lots of money.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Saved me so much time and frustration trying to figure out where in the world this goes.
You are so welcome! Glad my video solved your problem!
thank you so much for the upload! just adding one note, the plastic cover for your bulb replacement has to go back on before you can turn on your tv. I was stuck testing my bulb for quite a while, you MUST put that cover on to test your bulb. there is a sensor or something that will keep your tv in standby unless you bypass it somehow
you are awesome, your step by step instruction just made my life perfect.
Christopher Harrison Wow! Happy to know I helped you to perfection. 😊
I have two of the same, found the two thrown away, one in dumpster and the other on someone's front lawn. Because the lamps were Inoperable, not working. Replaced using your and now they both work. Thank you. You are awesome. How are you at fixing cars???
Thank you so much for this video. I was worried the operation would be difficult, but watching you do it, I'm confident I'll be fine.
Thank you so much. I was about to throw my Television away until I saw this video. Thanks for helping :)
Thank you - you gave me confidence to attempt the repair & successfully. Feel like Macgyver! Was getting ready to buy a new tv but now, don't need.
Good job! I admire and commend you for doing this by yourself. I will try to fix mine now for sure. Nothing like a woman inspiring people to do things like this on their own. I greatly appreciate it and thank you!
Thanks Aileen!
Just wanted to share my thanks as well. You probably saved me $150 dollars for a repair man or $1000 for a new tv. I did run into an issue cracking the housing on my new lamp since it wasn't a perfect fit. However, I just pulled the actual lamp out of the new part and put it in the old housing which worked perfectly fine.
It helped with our 60 inch sony wega…perfect instructions…bought a bulb with casing on amazon for $70 shipping in.
omg thank you. I have the exact TV and your video was very clear and accurate... I'm watching my TV again....thanks a bunch!!!😆😆
Step by step perfect!!! Mom not fussing anymore 😄 thanks soo much!!
What a great step by step description
Thanks Beth for the positive reply!
Amazing! perfect explanation with a calming voice! Thank you Ms Gross!
Great video, easy to follow and it helped us to bring our TV back to life. Thank you Gailann !!
Great job on problem solving, however, usually dust on the back panel is the culprit for the bulbs to burn out bcuz there's dust sometimes covering the vents to the fan. Just thought I'd put that on here for people who don't know. It's probably a good idea to clean your fans that cool the bulb.
Good stuff, this really cleared up a couple of questions I had. The book isn't real clear on all of the screws that need to come out, but your video was very helpful.
Ken, very happy to hear the video helped. hope your tv is as good as new now!
Just watched your video. Made swapping the bulb in my 42 inch Sony a breeze. Thank you.
That's great Dennis! So happy to hear my video helped!
Merci pour la vidéo, vous m'avez fait épargner beaucoup de $$. Vraiment très facile en suivant vos instructions, surtout pour le panneau avant. Ceci dit, on a pas à enlever toutes les vis en arrière, juste les 2 plus grosses (une de chaque côté).
vous êtes les bienvenus et merci pour votre contribution positive.
Beautiful lady thanks for the instructions I really appreciate it. You are an angel.
Thanks for the step by step tutorial.Great Job!
The 2 screws on the left and right covers do not need to be removed, only the 2 large thumb screws with the penny slot. This allows the front panel to be removed as shown.
Thanks so much Gailann, watched your video and purchased from the link your provided the new lamp, installed and working.
this was easy to follow. tv is back in action. thank you!
Thanks for the video. This was very informative and I was able to do it without any instructions other than yours (of course I already looked up the S/N, did the Ebay/Amazon thing, and got the lamp beforehand).
Thank you for the video! Very straightforward and simple. Also discovered my bulb burned my cover quite a bit, to the point of where the cover has actually warped! :O
Thank you for the instructions and I was able to change the lamp on my own :)
Niki, Glad my video helped!
Thanks for the tidbit about the cover being on before the lamp will work.
Hi Miss Talula! You're welcome... I learned the hard way... first I tried checking the TV before the cover was on and panicked when it did not work. But then realized the cover needed to be securely in place and then the TV came right on. WooHoo!
@@gailanngross much appreciated. I fixed my TV for $30 (the cost PDF the bulb) and 30 minutes of time!
Thank you so much for this video! So helpful and easy to follow!
Thank you so much for this video, it helped a lot! Shout out from the Philippines! :-)
Fantastic.... just made a seemingly tough fix simple. Thank you.thank you.
Thanks for giving this video I was so confused how to do take it out anyways thank you so much:)
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the video. Was able to get my tv working first time!
thanks for the advice. i followed your video, made it successful. thank you again.
GREAT JOB! THANK YOU! THIS ALSO GOES FOR KDF-42WE655!
Thank you! I'm happy my video has helped and Thanks for the info!
Thanks for the walk through. It was exactly what I needed.
worked -- picture back. Don't forget to put lamp cover on prior to test of new lamp. thx
Hey Gailann I just got my hands on an apparently busted (same) TV and its just showing black - bottom lites are flickering but zero on screen. Your Vid has persuaded me to dig out the lamp and see if that's whats busted - I'll give it a shake. Your vid has persuaded me to give it a try - thanks. Just one thing - whats with the electrical screwdriver - cant you just use an ordinary one? Electric aint truly necessary. I'll check back and let you know how it goes. Thanks - Mark
Thanks for this video, you really helped me out here!
Thanks for letting me know my video worked for you, Drew!
Thanks for your video. Did you have no sound or other TV function when the lamp burned out?I would have thought that at least the sound would continue to work or the letter indicators in the top corner saying DVD or one of the other designations. Thanks again.
awesome video thank you going to follow your directions to replace my lamp.
Thanks you were great with every detail.
Awesome you made it that much easier for me to do lol I have the same tv thank you so much hun
Chris, thanks for the positive comment! Very happy my video helped you fix your sony!
Hi dear...
Thank you for your information.
How do you know when the lamp is' burned?
Thank you! bout to try this out right now!
get the lamp on amazon, cost about $30.
this video worked for me but the only suggestion I would make is do not zoom in so much.
it's hard to tell where the slots are when it's zoomed in so much you cannot tell where the screws are,
edc
Very happy to hear my video worked for you Ed! Thanks for the input about zoom... this was the very first instruction video I ever made... so there were certainly some rookie errors.
Thanks!! Your advice so helpful!!
Danny
What do you do with your replacement bulbs that are no good? Toss em out?
Thanks for so kindly pointing that out... obviously I'm a rookie. But I will be sure to turn the camera sideways from now on. Hopefully it still helps people fix their own tv's.
what if the inside were u put your new lamp bolt burn out would it still work with the new lamp
Thanks for the video I found it very useful.
Thank you SO much for helping me!
I very much appreciate your video. It was very helpful. Thank You :-)
What size hex wrench did you use to take the screws out
Excellent video. Thank you!
You are welcome! Thanks for the positive comment.
Mine is still working fine...its been about 2 months. If you ordered on Amazon, you should be able to get lamp replaced for free. Mine has a 5 year warranty. I am sure it is frustrating ... two steps to be careful...Make sure the lamp is tightened in firmly and make sure the outer cover over the lamp is closed securely. Hopefully it was just a fluke and not something more wrong with your tv. Let us know.
Very helpful indeed - thanks!
Hey nice vid, my screen is very dim. VERY DIM. Then occasionally it goes completely black. Could my lamp be to blame?
HI Abe, very happy you liked my video. If your TV is LCD projection then it is possible that your lamp is about to burn out. Good luck!
Thanks, worked perfectly!
thank so much...... so helpful..............
thank you very much, im doing mine right now !!!
Helpful hint: Once you remove the bulb, you can clean the mirrors with a mild cleaner. This removes the pink spots you see on the screen!
HI Joe, I didn't have pink spots, but thanks so much for the tip.
Help Help Help. I have a question. I'm about to buy one of these Sony TVs used on Craigslist. The TV is older. Hence, no manual to tell me what kind of replacement lamp to get if I need it changed. Are all the lamps the same size or does it depend on the TV model ?
If you look on the back of the TV you should find the model number. This will tell you what lamp will work for your Sony.
This is a link to the one I ordered 4 years ago, it is still working fine.

thank you!
Thanks Gillian i fix my tv last year by watching your video exact same tv. Now my tv blinked out again once you turn on the tv the green light blinks for a while then it turns red and there's a red light blinking under the 1st red light can you please help.
thank you precious 😍
You're welcome 😊
thank you girl
you are welcome!
Can you guys help me I cant find the proper bulb for my Sony KP-43T75 :(
How are the two plugs on the bottom secured in the tv that plug into the bottom of the lamp? Mine is loose and I always have to take off the back cover, have someone push the lamp in while I hold the plug in place from the back. Thanks
Pat, my lamp is in the front of the tv. The replacement lamp slid in easily and I just made sure the outside screws were secured. Sorry, I'm not sure about the plug being loose.
Hi, thanks for the reply! I paused the video at 8:10 which is where I think you can best see the plug that I am talking about. So right above the lamp in your hand and below the colorful glass piece in the tv (don't know what that's called lol) is a plug with two kind of arched receptors. On each side of the receptors are two silver dots (When I think about it, its most likely a power cable otherwise how would the lamp light up without power). So on my dads tv the plug is hanging down and not just sitting there ready to be plugged into. I am curious as to what is holding it in place. Like I said, when I change the bulb the wire is hanging down and so I have to take off the back cover. When the bulb blows eventually I am going to take a closer look and see why the plug isn't mounted like on yours. I understand it's probably just broken from my dad jamming the last bulb in there but I'll have to take a look next time. Thanks for the upload and the reply!
thanks
Not bad, but it looks like you only need to turn the coin screws on the back to release the front panel. Might save some time if you don't do the other three on those panels unless you have some alignment issues.
pauljs75 actually. I tried that. u have to remove them all
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
thanks you...
Thank you so much!!!!
awesome & thanks it worked !
i have the same sony tv as the video. By replacing the lamp of sony tv. does it take away the blue dots on the screen too?
Hi Alejandro, I did not have blue spots on my screen... my screen was black with no picture just sound. Replacing the lamp gave me the picture back. Sorry, just not sure about the blue spots.
Hi Gailann , okay thanks anyways.
lifesaver. thanks!
