I have an InFocus Screenplay 4805. It has two problems and it is out of warranty and no authorized service centers in our area. The problems are it has a shadow down the left side of the picture and it also makes a very loud buzzing noise when the projector is turned on. Would you be able to repair these two items and if so what is the cost and procedure. We live in Clermont Florida, which is near Orlando. Thanks.
Hi dcabbarno
The buzzing noise is a broken colourwheel and the shadow could be a part of the colourwheel that is obstructing the light engine or it could be your packlight pipe ( tunnel with 4 tiny mirrors in it ) that was damaged when the colourwheel broke.
I do unfortunately not have the part numbers of the parts that I mentioned , but you could assist by opening up the unit and supplying me with the part numbers.
The colourwheel you will spot straight away once you've taken off the top cover of the Projector , the packlight pipe is situated right next to it - looks like a small tunnel that's got 4 mirrors inside it - takes the light into the light engine.
Once you've supplied me with these I can get you prices and places to order it from and will help you with instructins on how to replace them - it is quite easy to DIY.
Thanks for using Fixya !

Here are the part numbers. Can you please let me know the prices and where I can get them. Also, I am going to try and attempt to fix it myself, since I don't have an dealer near here that can do it, so the DIY directions you offered will be great. Thanks for all your help.
how do you open the lock on the side to access the inside to stop the buzzing noise
Had problem with increasing band of yellow blur on right edge of screen image - found that one piece of the light tunnel had come unglued and would like to replace this part. Who can I contact to get a replacement for this and the color wheel (which appears to be a fragile part that will also likely breakdown over time)?
projector made a loud pop and then started a buzzing noise. I believe the noise is coming from the color wheel. I would be willing to fix myself but need instructions on how to get the cover off.
how do you get the cover off? im sick of this buzzing noise i know its the color wheel making the noise, and where would i get a new color wheel that is much more quiet ?if its possible to use a different brand color wheel?
projector starting making a loud buzzing sound and also no color in picture. then when opening the unit, a small piece of colour wheel is broken inside. Can these be replaced? Who can we order parts from and how easy are they to replace?
