My device has locked me out and I have no remote.

If the menus are still the correct colours then the issue is with the source signal. If the menus are affected then this is a problem with the UV filters in the projector. Check this, then post another question with your findings.

When you enable the Control Panel Lock function, you can lock all of the projector's buttons, or all of the buttons except the Ppower button. The remote control can still be used to operate the projector.
1. Press the Menu button, highlight the Settings menu, and press Enter.
2. Select Control Panel Lock and press the Enter button.
3. To disable the Control Panel Lock function, select Off in the Control Panel Lock menu.
4. Select Yes and press Enter to confirm the setting.
5. Press the Menu button to exit.

*- Or press and hold the Enter button on the projector's control panel for seven seconds. A message is displayed and the lock is released.

When I plug the LCD the LAMP/COVER flsh blinking red light

Problem might be due to the air filters being blocked.
Remove the cover and check for dust accumulated on air filters. Remove the dust with a small paint brush.
Let us know the result.

And thank you for using FixYa!

The best way to find out is to test it out when you get it installed. Then you can change the settings on the projector and the players to get the best results.

I'm sorry for the difficulties you're experiencing in getting the Manual and Remote for the Projector. Please click hear to download the Manual and Click hear to order for the Remote online.

Please let me know if you require any further assistance.

Many Hitachi projectors use 3LCD technology which supposedly makes colors more realistic. 3LCD means that the projected light must pass through 3 seperate LCD screens. Each screen has one color but when mixed, they form a nice picture. I would guess that one or more of the LCD screens have gone bad. That is a hardware problem that I would recommend talking to the manufacturer about.
