Does anyone know about troubleshooting InFocus DLP projectors?
I have an InFocus DLP projector that I use in my home for cable/tv/dvd's etc...it's mounted on my wall...it's silver, about 10 in. x 10 in....I've had little to no trouble with it and owned it since 2005...today it stated to make a whirring sound when turned on...but the start up screen still comes up and everything else works fine...anyone got any ideas...is it the motor? Any common problems?
If it is a high pitch sound, then the color wheel needs to be replaced. While this sounds cheap, the problem is that some InFocus projector color wheels came with the engine and was not sold separately. Engines cost $1000-$2000. The color wheel itself costs under $100.
If it is a more low pitch sound, then the fan could be going bad. This should only cost at most $10.
2005...that means your warranty just expired. InFocus projectors range between 1-2 warranties. You can spend a few hundred dollars to repair the unit or you can invest in another projector. The part itself is cheap, but typically it costs $100 for labor. The fan costs $5. The color wheel may cost around $50.
Go to http://www.infocus.com/support and plug in your zip code to find the nearest service center. Parts are not sold to consumers, so you cannot repair it yourself.
