Cooling fan problem projector
I have a similar issue though mine isn't quite as extreme as yours. Got a couple things you can do.
1. clean out the projector with compressed air. You might have dust building up on components that is trapping heat.
2. Your fan might be burning out. Needs to be replaced. I'm still working on trying to figure out what tipe of fan it needs.
3. The temperature sensor might be going bad. This one is less likely and most complex to solve as it depends on how the system measures the temp. I haven't checked in detail yet.
4. Replace the whole unit or send it in for repair. Both options will be costly...
Optoma H56 - turns off just after start up.
It's not a short, the blub is near the end of it's life ~ the optoma is designed to detect when the blub is about to blow and shuts itself down. Turning the projector upside down or right side up usually only gives you a brief reprieve (some have reported a modest amount of extra time gained) on the blub ~ but in the end it's on it's way out and the projector will shut down again.
Dramatic increase in fan noise
Hi there
If you place your hand on the machine and you can actually feel the vibration , you might be looking at a faulty Colourwheel.
If not , try cleaning the fans by blowing it out. If the problem still occurs you might have to replace the fans.
