Bought this second hand, but don't know much about these projectors and what accessories i should have with it, as when i turn it on the green light flashes for few seconds then stays on green then few seconds later it goes back to red, but the whole time with no picture or anything, the only thing that happens is a fan or something starting up inside. could you tell me if there is something i need to power this up, all i got with it was the ac lead!! please help i paid good money for this and very dissappointed. cheers
Sorry couldn't answer you on the live chat. Here is the link to the user manual for your projector; http://sanyoservice.com/pdf/images/PLV55WM1(OM5110720-00_05).pdf Check page 51 - i am pretty sure that the projector is overheating - most likely as a result of needing the filter cleaned - check page 46 for details of how to do this. If this does not solve the problem, just check that there is nothing else blocking the passage of air from the filter to the fan as far as you can tell from the outside, and if still no joy then you need to get hold of a replacement filter, although it is unusual that these cannot be cleaned enough to use (it is not a good idea at all to try and operate the set without one) Hope this helps, if not then please post back with any change to the condition you described and we will see what we can do :)
