MY Amber Warning light just came on my project and keeps my projector from starting. First time its happen in 2 years of use. The manual says to call service i'm wondering if any one has had and delt with this problem themselves.

thanks

This is the lamp replacement indicator as per the manual: http://www.manualowl.com/m/Sanyo/PLV-Z5/Manual/26824

LAMP REPLACE indicator Lights yellow light when the projection lamp reaches its end of life (pp.47, 50)

Hey Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately mine is a Z3 and has a completely different Lamp Replace light.
My manual says my warning light means theres something wrong and unplug and take to a dealer. I have no idea where to take a 5+ year old machine.

Not many servicers left that work on projectors because it is so hard to get manuals and parts. I would call Sanyo and see if they have any authorized servicers in you area or what they charge for an estimate if you send it to them.
