Hi, a newbie question here, - I hope this is the right forum to post it. I bought a used JVC DLA-X750R Projector about 6 months ago. At first it worked great, but lately it started acting up. When I turn it on, it would occasionally fail to project. When this happens, the lamp lights up, - I can see that it's lit, but there is no image, not even the initial "D-ILA" screen, there are no warning lights on the projector. To fix the problem, I have to turn the projector off, wait for it to cool down and turn it back on. Usually this helps, but recently I had to repeat this twice. Could anybody please give me some advice? Is it a problem with the lamp? Does the projector need to be reset to factory specs? Any advice would much appreciated. Thanks, Mike

How many hours are on that lamp?
-
It says 1046 hours on the lamp. Of course, there is no way to know for sure, because I bought it used. The lamp should be good for about 4000 hours.
Today it gave me a different type of signal, - blinking orange in the middle and simultaneously blinking red (on the right-hand side). The manual says it's "abnormal circuit operation". After a while, I was able to turn back on, and the lamp was lit, but not projecting. I turned the projector off and on again, and it worked.
I will try a factory reset..
