I have an EIKI EIP-5000 it starts normally but a minutes later it stops working and the temp light turns on. also the screen has some displaced pixels like when a video card is broken. also this projectors doesnt start pressing start, i had to change configuration to direct power. why could it be?
This happened to me. In the projector, the section in between where the lamps go, there are two very small switch type levers, when a new lamp is positioned, these switches are supposed to move in line with a 4mm section of the new lamp. If they are not aligned together with the switch and slotted into place, it appears as if the projector doesn't recognise the new lamps. Unscrew the lamps again, make sure these little switches are aligned (a very small screw driver could help while positioning) when refitting the the lamps. Screw the lamps tightly and fire up. Hope this helps.
