Reset the "Lamp Hour" monitor from the on screen display "management" menu tab. Where did you buy your lamp?

hi,
you didn't mentioned any thing about the indications. is there is any indication on the projector. if projector have some problem it will show the indication for the same using its self diagnosing system.

just do one thing check the power cable and the power at the socket to which you have connected the projector. if these are ok and the projector have no indications on its panel, then the smps power supply in side the projector have some problem. if so it is difficult repair the smps by the user. need good knowledge of electronics servicing, because there is harmful high voltage points.

Is there is any indication on its panel, then if you discribe the same will provide you the exact solution .
Also try to check the inserted new lamp , lamp cover is it properly closed etc.

if the projector starts try to reset the lamp hour
1. Go to its menu select option2
2. From the option 2 menu select lamp runtime
3. Press and hold the enter button for approximately 3 seconds
4. After resting just power off your projector and turn it on again.

Also check one more thing

The "CONTROL KEY" may be set to "OFF". In order to set the "CONTROL KEY" to "ON"
without using the remote control unit, keep holding down the ENTER button on the projector and press the MENU button for more than 2 seconds.

ok

Check the bulb hours remaining through the menu. The bulb gets dimmer with age, so it could be close to life expectancy (2000 hrs regular, 3000 hrs Eco) and failing. The indicator light is based on hours only and will shut down the projector after (2100 or 3100 hours of bulb use), so it could still be the lamp failing or a power supply issue, especially if it's dim right from start up. Hope this helps.

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
 Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
 If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.
( Follow carefully the instructions in the LAMP REPLACEMENT section of this manual. ) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
 A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and
lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector's AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that
there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the projector
except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an
accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.

Hi, Replacing the lamp in a Sharp LCD projector requires the lamp indicator to be reset. When the lamp needs to be replaced, the indicator becomes red. Resetting the counter for the lamp hours to zero will also reset the indicator to green.

Attach the power cord to the projector and plug it into an electrical outlet.

Step 2Locate the buttons on the top of the projector and simultaneously hold down the "Enter", "Menu" and "down arrow" buttons, then press the "Standby/On" button.

Step 3Continue holding all four buttons depressed until the lamp indicator light begins flashing green.The counter is now reset. Zero hours will now be displayed on the screen.

Hi Greg147

The resetting is not done in the menu.

Plug in your power cable - Machine is now in standby mode.

Then Hold down the left and right arrow keys on the Projector and press the power button. You'll see a indicator light on top of the Projector flashing twice - Lamp hours is now reset.

Hope this is of help.
