how Do I reset timer of Lamp on My Sony VPL-PX15 Projector? Please Help me.
Anonymous Nov 16, 2008

It is NOT working on my VPL-HS60.

I plug in the power cord and then the projector is already in 'STANDBY'
mode (I don't have to push any buttons for that?). When the projector
is dark and just glowing red from the 'STANDBY/ON' lamp, I press the
suggested remote control buttons, but... IT DOESN'T WORK! :-(

I have also tried to turn the projector ON and THEN OFF AGAIN by
pressing the button on the projector itself. Thereafter followed the
suggested procedure above, but still my lamp timer is not affected!

Does anyone know how to really reset the lamp timer on a Sony VPL-HS60 ?

Re: Reset Timer Lamp Sony VPL-HS60 projector

To reset the lamp timer:
1) With the projector plugged in and turned off, press the 'ON/STANDBY' button to put the projector in 'STANDBY' mode. NOTE: You have to press the button on the projector itself, you cannot use the remote for this step (this is not clear in manual).
2) Now, using the remote, press the following keys in order: RESET, <--, -->, ENTER.
3) Timer should now read '0'.

Re: Reset Timer Lamp Sony VPL-HS60 projector

Hi, I tried the simple "Reset" <, >, Enter" option to reset the lamp on my vpl-HS60 projector. The yellow warning "time to replace lamp" is now gone. However, the timer still shows 4,400 hours. Is the projector broken? Also, I have tried to use a new aftermarket replacement lamp from www.electrified.com and the picture is incredibly dark and muddy. Any advice on why this is happening from a new replacement lamp?

Re: Reset Timer Lamp Sony VPL-HS60 projector

I have the VPL-HS60 and just turned my projector off, as soon as it was in standby i pressed reset, <--, -->, enter; turned it right back on and it was reset. I had to reset because it everytime I turned it on it said to replace the lamp cause it had 3000+ hours on it. i could clear the message, but it was annoying to do everytime I turned it on.

Re: Reset Timer Lamp Sony VPL-HS60 projector

I often wonder what drunken monkey designed that - put it as a menu item you freaking idiot.

That said, so far, my piece of junk hasn't been able to reset the stupid counter / remove the stupid notification for the last 2-3 years that I've had the device.

My first question I would ask on buying a new one is "Have they fixed this yet?" No? Maybe another company has. This is stupid beyond belief!

So, I guess my solution is to buy another brand?

The above sequence should clear the counter.

The projector's lamp cover might not be securly on or you might need a new one, or the projector has blown a fuse that can be replaced other wise it could be your projector but be sure to contact your sony dealer first.

VPL-HS60 Scene Dimming

Hi 3mad

This is quite a sticky one as this could either be the lamp or the Ballast ( lamp's powersupply )

And the bad thing is that the only way to be certain , would be to first replace the lamp and if this continues the Ballast as well.

I would suggest you to replace the lamp first , as this is never a waste , you could always keep it as a spare and 99% of the time it is the lamp will give this kind of problem.

Good luck and thanks for using Fixya !
