Hi all,
I'm about at my wits end with my HLR5667W DLP tv. The color wheel shattered on me a couple days ago and we ordered a new one. However, the one that was ordered was an L6 model and we have an L3. Not to be daunted by that, I just took out the wheel of the L6 chassis and put it into the original housing. Installation went smoothly. However, when I go to plug in the tv, the color wheel begins making a very rapid clicking sound and doesn't seem to spin. I know it's the color wheel because when I remove the ribbon connection, the clicking stops. Is the wheel completely incompatible and hence the clicking noise?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: Color wheel makes clicking noise
If the color when you bought is used then you may have a problem with that. The RPM speed variates with the color wheels. barring can also be different.
