I need replacement lamps?

I'm looking for replacement lamps for a LXI series rear projector tv purchased from sears .
the model number is 626.54538.890
serial 16186016
it has a red, green,blue lamp
I very seldom turn this tv off and I have had it a few yrs. the picture has a lot of red tint to it
thank you

Unfortunately this is not as straight forward as changing a few bulbs. Each 'lamp' in your projector is actually a fully functioning picture tube or cathode ray tube with it's own scanning coils, driver circuit board and EHT (1000's of volts) supply attached.

Once the three tubes are successfully replaced you would then have to re-allign the picture geometry on each of the three images to correct for convergeance errors between the red green and blue elements of the picture respectively.

Good luck in finding the replacement tubes.

Kind regards
Chris
