Loewe articos muffin fan stops..

It is critical thet you replace the cooling fans! The imagers will be damaged if you don't. The focus issue is possibly contaminated a lens, dust or vapour.

the lamp will fail intermittently and light for 1-5 min, replace the lamp and it will run fine, note the ballest rarely fail

rans run when needed-not to worry, the only part of the set that gets hot is the lamp area

replace the color wheel and remove the fan blowing on the engine, its forceing dust into the wheel area, the wheel will last about 14-18 months, removeing the fan will extended life 2-4 years, there will be no heat issues with the fan removed, some models or later production runs will not have this fan

You have to replace Lamp before resetting Lamp Timer and most of all the ones I have replace TV does it Automatically.But if you do have a problem on Menu go to Lamp Timer and reset.

Your problem besides color wheel is the Ballast Board this Board is what turns on Lamp and be sure to CK cooling Fans if fan that cools Lamp is defective Lamp will not light,nor will set turn on!Call Encompass Parts or visit their website they should have listing for parts to your TV 1-800-638-3328 and heres another company you can Call UED 1-800-648-6657 If you need to know anything else let me know.

There is a software patch that increases the cut off temperature you may get this at Loewe Website. Quick fix is reverse one of the fans on the back of the set this gives a through flow of air rather than all fans blowing into the set.

There is a software patch availabe to increase the thermal cut off temperature. Can only be programmed using the Loewe Cablemax kit. Another solution is that the fans at the back all blow into the tv, reverse one of these fans, this gives a flow through the cavity. Remember to remove the filter from the one you reverse.
