My Econar GeoSource 2000 GEO Thermal will shut down periodically. There are 3 lights that will come on when this occurs. Green, Yellow and Red, all at the same time.

SOURCE: TV turns off after short period off time

What model set do you have?

SOURCE: Door won't close, blinks 10 times, sensor light yellow

Anytime the main light flashes 10 times and the door reverses to the open position it is a door sensor problem or the wiring to them. Nothing else causes this symptom.

SOURCE: SYLAVANIA green light blinks a few times and goes back to red

Funai used lousy wire going from the inverter board to the backlight tubes. Look for any wires that are touching each other. The insulation could have broke down between them and started arching. Get some heatshrink tubing to recover the damaged wires.

Good day,
Turning the thermostat to a warmer setting should not have caused the machine to quit cooling. Actually, the engineers give you far less leeway than you might think.
The controls are more in a class of fine tuning, otherwise people would be getting themselves into trouble. The manufacturers simply design the warm and cold parameters in a fairly narrow range.
The best setting is normal. When away, the machine will run far less simply because of no door openings. Opening a door lets in large amounts of air every time it's done, which is where your cost to run it exists.
Two things. One, if the temp in the kitchen exceeded 90 degrees for any length of time, you are operating it beyond it's design range, however two, it sounds as if the thermostat hung up, causing your issue. You may want to have it replaced, but it would be useless to call anyone when it's performing normally.
There is no test on thermostats other than by observing their action when the machine is not operating properly.

Testimonial: "Thank for your advice. This answers a number of questions. However I don't understand the last sentence. Could you clarify? Thanks again!"

SOURCE: I replaced the bulb on

Check the Lamp unit cover.The lamp unit cover is open.If the power indicator and lamp indicator both blinks red even when the lamp unit cover are securely installed,then remove the lamp out and refit it and again close the lamp door properly.If the lamp door is not getting close then red light will blink.And projector will turn off after few seconds or minutes.------ But if lamp unit door is properly closed and both lights are getting red and the unit shuts off.Then this indication is of faulty circuit board in the projector.The board is not letting the projector lamp to turn on and thats why the red lights comes on and projector shuts off.-------- that internal circuit board of the projector is short.You will have to check the tiny components on this board.In most of the cases,the faulty components can be easily located,because this components gets leaked or will look bit bulged up or will have burn mark on them. Once the faulty component is located,you can get the component from local electrical parts store or from online site like www.radioshack.com. But in some cases the whole board needs to be replaced. ---------- This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.
