So..Did the new lamp work at all? Even for a second?

 

Was the lamp a Philips or Osram lamp?

Ok, so that is a good lamp.

 

Then if you are getting a three blinker, the ballast is most likely bad and should be changed out.

 

The ballast is here: http://www.encompassparts.com/item/5829343/Samsung/BP47-00017A/Lamp-ballast

 

Installation is a little more involved but not hard if you know one end of a screwdriver form the other. I can help you there if you decide to do it.

 

Let me know.

 

I'll be here if you need more help. I want you to be 100% satisfied with my answer.Please be sure to indicate if my answer was helpful.

 

Thanks very much.

Steve
