Tell me all the numbers from the chip?

Bulbs do not really have a certain lamp life they only have a lamp timer. You will want to be sure you can get a replacement lamp they can go anytime between 0 and 6000 hours.

it has two clips that hold the lamp in place here is a video that shows removal. http://youtu.be/V_uUH-xHKkU

If you go into the menu of the projector.
Find the lamp status or info command.
It will tell you the current information.

If it has done over 1000 hours it has done well.
If the projector is ceiling mounted, the air is very hot up there and the lamp life will be greatly reduced. Is the lamp life indicator flashing?
Hope that helps.

The clicking sound is the high voltage power supply trying to
ignite the gas in the lamp. The lamp is not firing and coming on.
Check the bulb/ lamp life. Possible the lamp has exceeded its
useful life and may need to be replaced.

Your bulb could have blown, Your projector could have died

You have 1 of 2 possible problems.

(1) You need a new lamp.

(2) You have an overheating problem.

Just a quick couple of notes about your projector. It is a DLP projector (not LCD) and as such the machine as no air filters to clean. It does have air intake and air exhaust grilles, but no air filters to clean. This next part comes directly from the owner' manual for your projector:

When the lamp operation time exceeds 2000 hours*1 *2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset.

Your machine is designed to give visual warning messages at 1500 hours used, and 1900 hours used. Did you see any visual warning about lamp life over the past few months?

If you were experiencing an overheating problem, a "TEMPERATURE!!" message would flash up on the screen just before the unit shuts down. If there is no warning, you don't have a heat problem.

If you have a replacement lamp available, install it and reset the lmap hours according to your user manual. If you don't have the manual, google it on the web (it available).

i believe you hit the up and down arrow and the enter button on the projector itself and hold hem in for few seconds and it will display lamp usage.
