That light is there to tell you that the lamp is close to the end of its useful life. It simple monitors the amount of current that the lamp is drawing, so if the lamp stops drawing a preset amount of current, the lamp light will come on, indicating to you to order a new lamp so you have one when this lamp finaly burns out. Good Luck

Image goes black and then returns shortly after

Many sets that use lamps do this right before the lamp fails--average life is 2000 hours or 2 years of normal use--if no blinking lights suspect the lamp first.

Lense hours

Hello muhammad
Projector's lamp life is said to be, not with the lens life. Lens is made up of glass. But lamp will go weak. the life of lame will depend on how much time the projectior have used. Normal life of Panasonic projector bulb spans between [1800 to 2000] continous use. It means, if we take the low life span of the bulb as 1800 Hours [1800/24=75 Continous days]. If we use it for 4 hours a day, the bulb may last for [1800/4=450 days ie 1 Year and 85 days] OK.

The projector switches off itself due to following problems. Make sure that lamp is not used for more than its life expectancy as mentioned by the manufacturer.The projector gets over heated due to two problems. 1) The dust filters are clogged. Clean the filters. 2) The lamp life is almost over or used lamp is in use. Normally each lamp is used about 2000 to 3000 hours depending upon the manufacturer. In such case replace with new lamp. There are many fans to control the temperature inside. Some are blower fans. Some are exhaust fans. You will have to open the projector & check which one of them is not functioning. Replace the one which is not functioning. It is also likely that there may be some failure of components.

The image is very dim, even on maximum brightness. We are considering replacing the bulb, but bulbs for this projector are very expensive and we suspect that since there is some image, the bulb is not the...

Yes, as bulbs age they will begin losing brightness. Most projectors have a bulb life hour clock, that measures the number of hours a bulb has been used. Usually you can pull that up within the menu of the projector. Also that particular model has what is called "Eco-Mode" and when engaged dims the bulb by 25% to cut down on power consumption.

Typical life for a lamp in that projector is:

3000 hours on Normal mode
6000 hours on Eco mode

You can expect a brightness loss of 50% when you are approaching end of a lamps life.

If it has done over 1000 hours it has done well.
If the projector is ceiling mounted, the air is very hot up there and the lamp life will be greatly reduced. Is the lamp life indicator flashing?
Hope that helps.

NO PICTURE OR SOUND

Hi
Usually, if the red light is flashing and you get no picture, that means that the lamp life cycle is finished and you'll have to get a replacment lamp. the lamp has about 3000 hours of life (2 to 3 years under nomal use).

You can buy a replacment lamp from here
