You have to count how many blinks it does before a short pause, then check the table in the attached pic for the issue. Good luck!

How many times does it blink? Need to figure out which error message it is. Could be a thermal sensor.

Yes, it's a replaceable part. If that's the problem for sure.

However you may need to send the projector to Vivitek or maybe a local tv repair shop can help, if the projector is out of warranty. Before you send the projector to Vivitek, don't forget to put the UV filter back in.

bought in 2016 July with printer and we dont have service center in TANZANIA for Vivitek. in Kenya there is dealer but they don't do service.
Here TV repair shops can't trust :(.

Hi,

Replaced blub (from Mark) working fine, had readjusted grid and reset resin profile.

Blub easy to replace.

Old blub image attached.
