Did you replace the bulb with a Sony brand bulb or aftermarket?
Well Brad, you bring up a good point.
I waffled quite a bit as to which bulb to buy. This could be the problem. Normally I do purchase real OEM.
Here is the site I purchased from. It is "OEM" but the price would indicate otherwise. I chose the second option. There were four options to choose from. Here is the site. My disty was back-ordered on the genuine Sony unit. I may return the bulb and wait for the actual Sony unit.
