Orange light on lamp icon on Optoma EP732H Projector

When i push the power/standby button while it is flashing green, it goes to a solid green but in about 30 seconds the orange light next to the lamp icon comes on and stays on for about 2 minutes, then the projector will go back into standby mode where the green light flashes. The only instructions that comes with the manual says to contact the service tech. Can anyone help me with this issue?

    I have the same problem with the same model. It will run for about 5 minutes then just go blank - sometimes with the orange "lamp" light on first, and sometimes not. After it cools down, the power button flashes Green again and it will power up if I press it. The fan runs fine.

This same thing happened to me, I removed the bulb and put it back in, it reset something and I was able to use the projector again.

Optoma 719, can't get lamp and fan to turn on.

There is a stuffed 10v 3300uf capacitor on the power board. You need to replace it.
Bellow you can check in the picture where the capacitor is located.

Notice that in this picture I have already took the bad capacitor out and replaced with two small cords to reach the bottom and test the new capacitor.
To reach this place is not fast, several layers of plastic and metal must be removed, but is not a hard task to take the capacitor out and replace it for another.
It works just great! Now it is back on track with awesome image.

Only power light will power on for few seconds then flashes.

Does the main lamp light at all? It sounds light a cooling fan failure. If the fan iis not working the the main lamp will not turn on and the power light will flash.
