| Please Note: This is the color BP96-00674A wheel only, it does not include the housing. You will NOT be able to reuse your old color wheel housing unless you have a BP96-00674A FDB Bearing color wheel and assembly right now... Please look at all the available pictures and make sure that your original color wheel has the "gold bearing" versus the "silver bearing" that is not compatible.

If you are installing a FDB Bearing (GOLD) Colorwheel, in place of your FAB Bearing (SILVER) Colorwheel you will need to install a jumper ("Shorted") on the DMD Board (Jumper CN810). This jumper is on the BACK SIDE of the DMD Board. Keep in mind that the HOUSING of this colorwheel is NOT INCLUDED. The FDB (Ball Bearing) color wheel and the FAB (Air Bearing) color wheel are NOT INTERCHANGEABLE!
Does your TV make a "whining, whirling, clicking, or humming noise?" If the TV have the infamous blinking lights problem and you're replaced your lamp without success, it's most likely a problem with your color wheel. The Samsung BP96-00674A color wheels spin anywhere from 6,000 to 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM’s)--It is one of the few consumable parts in your Samsung TV. The average life expectancy from our data logging shows the Samsung color wheels are fairly reliable with a MEAN average of 5-8 years, compared to the trouble prong RCA color wheels which on average last 3-5 years! The following pictures are from Samsung HLP/HLR Series FDB ball bearing color wheel.
This BP96-00674A is the replacement color wheel for many HLP, HLR, SP, and PT DLP TV’s. HLP & HLR Series TVs are Samsung DLP's produced for the US marketplace. SP Series TVs are primarily for European marketplaces (and there may be some of these sets in Canada). PT series refers to AKAI DLP TV’s, which are also distributed in the US marketplace. THE AKAI TV’s utilize Samsung components but are re-badged as AKAI.

Remember this is just the BP96-00674A color wheel and does not include the housing assembly that the color wheel sits on. This color wheel is not compatible with the previous generation housing assembly and requires the housing assembly of the BP9600674A color wheel.
This is a seven segment air bearing color wheel. It replaces your original ball bearing color wheel that is less reliable and nosier. Some of the latter model HLR TVs featured the air-bearing color wheel, however, if your TV currently has the ball bearing color wheel, you will have to remove a jumper when replacing the wheel. A very well documented installation guide is available at: http://guides.fixyourdlp.com/samsung/bp96-01579a.php |
