Thank You so much for this video, I have a 2008 73", that had the shadow on top like yours, 6" or so, first I tried "loosening" the screw a quarter turn, didn't do much, I then did a little more, I think a half turn in total, and voila !, it looked perfect, so then I put all the screws back in. Your video wasted no time, and said exactly what needed to be said. So Stoked ! :-)

You're a lifesaver man! It's 2018 and we still have our 65 inch dlp in our bedroom cause it still rocks, but that blasted horizontal shadow was causing frustration for months! Was gonna purchase new tv until I came across this video! Followed your example step by step, and sure enough- problem fixed! May good shit happen to you and your fam! Thank you!!

I just replaced the DLP Chip in my 65" Mitsubishi, went with the Shop.Jimmy video, should have waited till I saw yours. At least your 73" looks identical to my 65" so it would have been easier than second guessing how my larger model was different in wiring etc, than the model they were using.

I haven't opened my wd-73737 up yet - but - i've heard another issue (besides adjustment) can be the glue coming loose on a lens, or the 'light tunnel' that can cause a sagging shadow - one guy claimed he fixed it with gorilla glue .. saw in a post, can't confirm

Hi, I just knocked my Mitsubishi DLP TV over into the wall while I was cleaning some windows. I hit it good enough to drive the corner into the drywall and left a 1/2 inch gouge in the wall. Anyway, I now have a shadow across the top of the screen running somewhat diagonally from the left side to the top right side of the screen. At the bottom of this shadow I have a rainbow light spectrum. Do you think adjusting the light tunnel for vertical adjustment might correct this? Other than this, the TV seems ok.

You need to replace the bulb or if you took it apart a screw could be missing. It wont function properly without all the pieces getting put back. I recommend putting your model number on amazon and finding a replacement bulb you shouldnt have any more issues going forward.
