The projector powers up for about a minute or two then shuts down and the "Temp" light will flicker 4 or 5 times. I first thought the fan was out, but I can hear and feel the fan blowing on startup.
I had the same problem and fixed it today. The fan is 70 x 70 x 20mm. I could not find the exact one, but 70 x 70 x 15 works just fine and I was able to find that fan at a Micro Center store for $8.99. The fans should be blowing air out from the front of the machine, not blowing in on the lamp.

This is a common problem with these projectors. There are actually 3 fans in the unit, 2 of which commonly fail. If you replace the fan with another one not exactly like it the unit will still shut down after a few minutes with a fan fail error. (blinking temperature light) I may be interested in purchasing your dead projector. Please email me at nalexandrov251 (aT)gmail.com and we might be able to work something out.

I ´VE CHANGE THE FAN, BUT I HAVE A QUESTION. DOES IT HAVE A SPIN DIRECTION? IT BLOWS OR ASPIRE?
IT´S WORKING BUT I´M AFRAID IT´S NOT THE SPIN DIRECTION

Mine does the same thing! I took it apart and found that one of the fans were not working. I can't find a replacement fan. Could you tell me the company you used to fix your unit?

We have several of these projectors and this is a common problem. The cooling fan that directly cools the bulb dies. Since the warraty is expired on them we have gone through hell and back to get them fixed. We found a company that will fix them but no one will sell us the parts.

Having the same problem. Projector runs 30 seconds to 2 minutes and shuts down with a flashing temp. light.
where can i get it fixed?
yep...same problem but I'm here in Thailand with little confidence that I can get this fixed unless someone can give me some advice how to fix myself. the sad fact is that I haven't even put 15 hours on this projector!! I opened the lamp door and blew everything clean but still no go. thanks.
