Today I was running the my SP4805 projector with a laptop and DVI connection.It was running fine then i toggled off the switch and removed off the power cable and went out.After I came in after 5-10 mins and put the power cord again and toggled the power switch to ON position there was a spark near the power input and the projector is not turning on now.What do you think has happened and what is the resolution now to get this repaired?
Would really appreciate your quick response, as i am afraid that whether the projector is severly damaged? I don't see any reasons why this should have created spark.
Regards,

tried to switch on again and found that mains was tripped at the power inlet into my house after which i have kept the projector in safe place now…:-(

You probably blew a fuse in the PJ. Unfortunately not easily replaced without sending it in. You really should not unplug your PJ so often and use the soft power off with the remote. If you must turn the power off use a surge protecting powerstrip with a toggle switch.

Hi Huey,
Thanks for the reply.
Hope its only the fuse that has blowed off..But in case I found a relaceable fusenow,should I switch the projector ON again..I am really afraid now..I don't want to loose the bulb..
Thanks for those warnings of not switching on/off the projector frequently...I did in that way 3-4 times..
is there a consolidated page where I can find all the warnings.
Thanks again,
Rajesh
