LCD TV getting a darker picture- Do I need a new bulb?
I have the brightness maxed out, every channel is really dark. I've tried all the other settings but nothing seems to help the brightness. I've had it for three years now, is it the bulb?

1. Yup - the backlight has a lifespan of ~5 years.
For LCD monitors, I always get an extended warranty.

I guess its time though. Thinking back I have had the set for five years now.
