Default Mitsubishi "Blinking Green Light"

According to the web, this is a common problem on Mitsubishi rear-projection
TVs and is referred to as "The Blinking Green Light of Death." There are two
processors in the set and the light blinks for about a minute during power
on as they attempt to communicate. If the light KEEPS blinking, it means the
two processors cannot communicate properly.

If your hand fits a soldering iron, and you have access to about $7.00 worth
of capacitors, you can fix it yourself. Else be prepared to pay upwards of
$750 for the circuit board and installation.

Sounds like the perfect excuse to buy a flat screen just as big for
about the same cost as repairs. I've been seeing a lot of projection
TV's at the curb these days. Too expensive to fix and a mediocre
picture at best.
