Can anyone out there help me figure out what happened to the power going to my dlp lamp? First; I had a color wheel that broke into who knows how many pieces; so i ordered that off ebay and took the old one out and put the new one in. At that time before the color wheel broke; the lamp was working fine. however now; whenever i plug it in and turn it on; I get no lamp and the lamp indicator on the front panel comes on, then after a period of time of trying to light the lamp; the unit turns off then back on and does the same thing all over again. It does this until finally I get all 3 lights(timer, standby/temp, and lamp) flashing. At first i thought maybe the lamp just needed to be re-seated. So, i tried that. I also tried to hold down the small blue switch inside the lamp cover to try and get it to fire; but still nothing. Any ideas?
