I have a dell 2300mp projector that does not work. I turn it on and the power button lights up green (flashing off and on). None of the other buttons light up. I press the power button again and then the power button remains on and it is a solid green for about a minute and then the lamp light comes on (amber/red color). I do not hear the fan on (Is the fan suppose to come on immediately after I press the power button?). I read another solution that explained that opening up the projector and vacumming it would make it work. I opened it up but there was not a drop of dust anywhere in the projector! :(. So is there anything else I can do to fix this projector? Please HELP! :). I switched the lamp with one that works but still the lamp light came on. Does this projector have a bad fuse or something? or can it be the fan is bad and that is why the lamp won't come on? I appreciate your help on this and look forward to hearing from you or anyone else who may be able assist me on this. I am new to posting comments like this so I do not even know where to look for your response to my question. I know, pretty lame, but it's the truth so by chance I cannot locate your response to my question please e-mail me with your response, if you can, to [email protected]. Thank you very much.
I was told by an expert that the fan should come on as soon as heat starts to come on. You should never turn a projector off with out the fan running for a while to cool the bulb down. Each projector is different but the fan has to operate on then all. There is so much heat in the bulbs that air has to keep them cool when they are operating as well have to cool gradually when they are shut down.

I guess dell just don't know how to built projectors right way.... and theirs tech support guys are.... they just don't know about projectors more then manual

Same problem
When i turn the projector on it only comes on four about a minute until the temp lights go amber and it turns off, the fan is working but the air coming out is a little warm. what if anything is making my projector overheat, or is it not heating at all?

Hi
If the fan is not working, the lamp will not fire. Kindly make sure that the panels are seated properly. Also chek if the outer cover is seated back 100% as if that is not seated back 100%, the unit will not work.

i bought the beamer without lamp, the old lamp has been removed because it "exploded". thats what the seller told me.
so i bought a new lamp, but the beamer does not work.
i opened the case and removed several electronic boards, no dust inside. i put electric contact spray to all connectors and assembled the device. no change, does not work.
the lamp led gets on after about 2 minutes after pushing the green blinking power button.
Literally the same issue...cleaned out the inside of the projector, tried a new bulb. Nothing works...
