Here is sequence of events happened. - I was watching a movie, suddenly projector stop projecting light on screen. - Though the lamp was new (hardly 100 Hrs done) but I assumed that bulb may gone bad. - I replaced the lamp, the new lamp is not projecting either, so certainly problem is not with lamp. - When I turn on projector after installing new bulb. It appears that fan turns on. - The green light blinks, few times it tried to initialize then the light turns in to red blinking light. Any suggestions?

I generally fix this by re-seating the bulb housing. Take it out and put it back in. Look for cracking at the base of the bulb on the mirrored surface. It could be a barely functioning bulb that isn't busted, but can't initialize. I would take it to a shop that has the same bub type in a housing and make a quick switch.

My first questions is:
Is this the first lamp you have placed into your Infocus pj? If not, did you reset the hours when you did it last time? Otherwise that can also confuse the projectors internal system thinking there is NOT a new lamp in there and there for make it stop working once the clock hours are expired and over the 3000-6000 suggested hour life.
Let me know so I can help trouble shoot other possible problems.

first thing's first- clean the dust out of the projector with canned air. excessive dust and heat are death to a projector. then check the colorwheel. if you don't hear a high-pitched whir or you hear a buzzing, the colorwheel needs to be replaced. the lamp won't strike without it. next check both fans. you may need to take the top off to do it. if both fans don't spin properly, it will overheat. many times the larger fan (lamp fan) will burn out or the circuit that starts it burns out. next, check the new lamp. does it have black spot, bulges, or fogging? if so, you'll need to replace it. if you do have to, don't get the cheapest one from "bob's lamps" online. you get what you pay for. if all that is ok, then you have a bad power supply. it's rare that this model has ps issues, but it's not unheard of. you could get the part(s) from an infocus service center, or send it in to them for repair. either way, try av solutions in ny. they're really good. www.avsolutionsny.com
SOURCE: replaced bulb. Worked for a while then wouldnt power up again.
the cheew cheew cheew is the colorwheel not spinning properly. either the colorwheel motor is shot, the sensor can't sense it, or the power to it is too low. first thing: remove the cover and blow the dust out of it with canned air. dust does a lot of damage to these. if it is the sensor, cleaning it off might help. if it is the colorwheel, i have bad news: on the x1, the colorwheel is not sold seperately from the optical engine. you'd have to get the entire optical engine. now the worse news: infocus no longer makes or sells parts for the x1. you could try and find one on ebay that has a different problem and swap out the parts

make sure the colorwheel is spinning. if it is not, replace it. also, blow the dust out of it with canned air. excessive dust kills lamps quickly. you'll also need to reset the lamp timer. are you using an sp-lamp-009? the sp-lamp-018 looks exactly like it, but is used in th x1a and x2. the x1 only uses the sp-lamp-009. if all else fails, replace the power supply.
