Replaced bulbs on the eiki 4500 projector the timer would not reset but projector powered up ran around 3 hours total then we tried to power up the projector the next day and it would not power up and the lamp 1 light was blinking red. We opened it back up (this projector is 30 ft in the air) made sure the bulbs was in tight enough but it resulted in the same result. #1 bulb light blinking and cannot reset bulb timer and will not power up. Not sure what to do from here and we would like it to be ready for christmas eve services.

Hello

I guess you did not correctly rest the timer and that is the cause of the problem.To reset the timer correctly

Turn on the projector.

Press the "MENU" button and the on-screen menu will appear.

Press 3/4 button to remove the red frame pointer to the Setting Menu Icon .

Press the 6 button to move the red frame pointer to the Lamp Counter Reset item and then press SELECT button.

The message "Reset Lamp Counter?" appears. Move the pointer to "" and then press SELECT button.

Another confirmation dialog box appears and select "" to reset the Lamp Replace Counter..

This should fix the problem.
