IN24+ orange lamp light is on with a brand new bulb. How do I reset the lamp hours when the lamp light will not project?

To reset the lamp timer on an in24 go to settings, then select Service. The option to reset lamp hours should be in this menu.

I hope this helps!

if the set is now working,its just a matter of resetting the lamp-hour counter in the on-screen menus.be sure to clean any filters associated with the fan which cools the bulb,or your new lamp wont last long!

What you need is to have the lamp timer reset. To do so, perform the following;

You will need two hands.

With the remote, press and hold down the "mute" button.

Simultaneously press and hold down the "enter" button on the front of the TV.

After about 5 seconds, a box will appear that shows the total number of hours on the lamp. To reset these hours, press the right arrow button on the remote. After doing so, another box will appear with a confirmation question and an icon for which button on the remote to press to reset the lamp hours.

Try tv unplug,replug it back like an hour later.The tv will reset itself,back to the factory setting.It should detect the projection Lamp life are good and a new Lamp.The "LAMP" LED Light indicator,will go off.

if it runs for a few minutes before shutting down, it could be the lamp. check to see if the seams of the lamp that are closest to the underside of the top cover have foil tape covering the seams, if not then this has been known to cause premature shutdown.

Make sure lamp cover is put back in its position properly after bulb replacement.
If I have info about model and brand of your TV then I might offer better help to fix it.

MAKE SURE BLUB WIRING IS THE SAME AS OLD BLUB, IN24 AND IN24+ WIRING IS DIFFERENT IN CONNECTOR.

1. Press and hold the MENU button on the TV.
2. Press and hold the MENU button on the REMOTE
(Hold both until the service menu pops up)
3. Press and hold the ENTER button on the TV
4. Press and hold the MUTE button on the REMOTE
(Hold both until the LAMP LIFE HOURS appears on the screen)
5. To reset the lamp counter and turn off the orange light press select on the REMOTE.
6. Press Select again to con firm the operation.

the plug the connects underneath is not connecting right you have to get at the plug and seat it correctly

Let me add...

I had one 3300MP and removed/replaced the bulb to dust off as it was overheating. There is a small metal like switch that resets the bulb replacement (physical switch - take a good look) -- This helped to reset the first time I did this, but doesn't reset the hours on the chip.

However, since this bulb was problematic for me, I have done this a couple of times and since has stopped powering the bulb now. So, thinking it was the bulb, I replaced the bulb, -- No good... So, thinking it was the projector, I bought a new/refurbished one on ebay -- tested the NEW bulb - NO GOOD. now I have TWO PROJECTORS, THREE BULBS and NOTHING THAT WORKS...

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
