Please check the internal fuse. It should be right underneath the power plug port. If it's broken, then buy a new one.

white spot in image is comman problem of dmd chip it is fixed in to light engieen with heat sink replacment can possiable by expert

These bulbs are very sensitive to contamination. When installing a bulb, do not touch it with your fingers, as this will leave your natural oils on it and that will become a hot spot and burn out the lamp. Use a clean piece of toilet tissue when installing the new lamp to eliminate the above. Good luck!

it should be in the setup menu..

DMD (Digital Micro Mirror Device) replacement required.

According to the manual, a red blinking light indicates that the lamp cover is open. Try reseating the lamp and making sure everything closes up right. If the light is still blinking, it is most likely a problem with the projector itself and you may need to find out about getting it serviced.

HI,
You can visibly inspect the lamp to make sure the bulb behind the glass is intact & the round part of the bulb is clear & round. Otherwise if possible return the lamp for exchange. If the same thing happens then the lamp ballast is likely bad. I have many in stock I can diagnose it.

hi,
for resetting the lamp hour do the following

1. Plug the power cord into the AC socket of the projector.
2. While simultaneously holding down MENU/HELP, ENTER and DOWN ARROW button on the projector, press STANDBY/ON on the projector.
3. "LAMP 0000H" is displayed, indicating that the lamp timer is reset.


ok

You should be able to get a new one from SHARP.

Does pressing in the button allow the machine to start up.
If not then the other overtemperature switches may have activated also.
The fuse may also be suspect

Check your air filter, maybe it's all dusty and makes poor air cooling, and you need to reset time (hour) counter in projector menu

Ravi,

I just read the manual for the projector. It clearly says that the lamp, if used for more than 2400 hours, will send the projector into standby mode. And then it should be taken to the nearest Sharp Service Center. Please do that. It means that the breakout from the standby mode is very technical and should be handled by trained technicians of Sharp.

Page 50 to 52 on the link below will tell you how to change the lamp.

Good Luck

This is not normal for a lamp. If you have touched the lamp with your fingers, this could increase the probability of the lamp failing. Anytime you replace a lamp, DO NOT touch it with your fingers directly. The oils can cause uneven heating which will then crack the lamp housing as you describe. Since this also can be a manufacturing defect, contact the lamp supplier. They may replace it for no charge as it is unusual. It won't hurt to ask.

Please keep us posted,

Dan

Mine does this often. While everything is still set up, projector on and signal coming from the laptop, I just unplug the video feed to the projector and plug it back in. This usually corrects it.

Flip over the projector with the bottom up to you. you will see a panel door front right of the lens. There is one screw to be removed from the lamp panel door. There will be two holding screws that hold the lamp housing in place, remove these. grab the handle and pull up towards you thus releasing the lamp housing assy. Then place the new lamp and firmly press down and then tighten the two screws that held the lamp assy, then replace the cover.
You will then need to reset the lamp timer. by pressing the menu+enter+the arrow button between the keystone and menu button simultaneously.

You may have tried using the zoom ring located at the lens there are two rings one for focus and zoom. If this is not working you will need to either move the projector physically forward or backward from the screen until you can use the zoom accordingly.
