Infocus DP8400x has blue hazey line running vertically along left side of the screen. Blue is darker near the bottom and becomes lighter as it moves up the screen. Is this repairable? It began showing up a day or two ago.
This discoloration is the begining of the lcd panel being thermal damaged. this happens when the projector is being used for a long period of time and then being shut off using the switch on the rear of the projector instead of the on/off on top or the remote. to fix it it will have to be replaced. very expensive major repair.
Testimonial: "Thanks!"
It's never been turned off in that method... always turned off via power button and the fan keeps running. Could it be any other thing?
based on you being 100% sure this is a DP8400X and without being personally able to see the discoloration,I can only guess based on what you've said is wrong-- it can only be 3 things---lcd is starting to have thermal damage which is a major repair, or somehow the factory settings have been changed in the HIDDEN SERVICE MENU for ghosting etc,which requires a technician to use a test screen to realign, or something has made it's way into the lcd panels-- some kind of dust particle,hair or something which would require removing the 2 front bezels and the top and then blowing air down into the panels to get the particles out.
You can also remove the lens and make sure nothing is trapped behind it.
