hlp6163w-how to check bulb hours and reset

I searched the forum quite well, and can't seem to find the answer. My lamp just went, and I ordered a new one. How do I access the area to check how many hours the bulb lasted, and how do I reset it. I talked to a tech and he said it's top secret, I could kill my tv if I had the codes or access. So much for democracy .


Thanks, Jeff
