no. this is not a lamp problem. Lamps grow darker as they age and finally fail to stay lit, they are white light only. The light is passed through the optical engine and through the use of filters, mirrors, lenses and LCD panels the white light is separated into the three primary colors (red, green and blue). The blue path is damaged leaving red and green which looks yellow. This is a normal failure after time and needs a new optical engine to fix: http://www.encompassparts.com/item/5398739/Sony/A-1603-611-A/Optics_Block_(Irp)
