Colourwheel, when it losing its speed. Fault would lock like flash of the coulors, wrong colours or no colour at all.

I think it's a lamp driver issue from what I've seen others have gone through. I also read that if you go through the sequence of unplugging, plug back in, wait 20 seconds and try to turn on, multiple times, it will finally kick on and work. I just got mine to turn back on by doing this and waiting through the fan cycling without the light turning on. After the 4th sequence the light flickered. After the 7th sequence it finally turned on and is working. Now I can watch the Super Bowl and will look into replacing soon.

the lamp probably blew because the fan stopped. if the lamp can't cool down, it blows. you'll have to find out which fan and replace it.

adjust the resolution to match. also, make sure the monitor port is activated.

I simply shut the projector down (had to pull the power cable) and when starting up again it was working fine and has since then.

clean it out. it may be dusty inside. the dust keeps in the heat, and if the projector can't cool down, it cuts the heat source- the lamp. also see if the lamp is close to 2000 hours. it may need replacing.
