If the menu shows, the bulb is ok , surely ?

check the connections at the PJ and at the source

Hello,

I have a TLP MT1 LCD projector that I've had from new back in 2000.

It no longer seems to project the video image but DOES still manage to
project the menu. Are these different mechanisms? I assume the lamp
has come to the end of it's 2000-hour life - it's done very well at
about six years of occasional use.

If it's relevant, the message " 1000h" was showing every time I used
it prior to it packing up. Again - this leads me to believe it's the
lamp - but I can't find that message mentioned anywhere in the
manuals.

If anyone could let me know if this problem will be solved by
purchasing a new lamp I would be most grateful. I've found the MT1 to
be an excellent product and would hate to have to turn my back on it.

Best regards,
Chris Ward
