    Epson 5020UB Projector - Temp and Lamp Light Flashing

    Need some idea of where to start to fix this projector. According to the user manual, when the temp and lamp lights are flashing there is an internal problem which doesn't give me much to work with. Need some input. The fans run for like two seconds when attempting to turn on then goes straight to the error code. Since it's not a lamp, fan or temp error, I'm leaning towards the power supply.

      i had something much the same with mine that had been stored in bad conditions and working previously . thought it was going to be a supply capacitor but wasn't .. i pulled all boards and gave them a good scrub with hot soapy water and paint brush concentrating on ic pins . rinsed with clean then iso washed and blow dried . that fixed the corrosion issue .and its still working .

        Did you ever figure out what the issue was with your projector? I'm experiencing the same thing with a 6010. I'm wondering if it is the lamp ballast....

          Epson EB-U42 projector / Caps with 0.7 ohms ?!
          by narf
          hi all,

          first of all: i'm a (motivated) newbie, so please forgive me any stupid question i may or may not ask

          i'm currently repairing a projector: Epson EB-U42 that doesn't start (no lights, nothing).

          what i've found so far:
          - the PSU does its job and supplies 12V to the mainboard via the connector.
          - shortly thereafter, there is a mosfet (TS420-600B) where i can test 12V on the one side (in the data sheet this side is called Anode), Gate 0V, Kathode shorted to ground
          - not far away, there's the first cap with a resistance of 0.7 ohms....

          Elitebooks (820, 840 etc. all gens) and those continuously flashing Power LED + flashing CapsLock LED
          by STKR123
          As the Elitebooks (820, 840 all gens) only show flashing Power LED and flashing CapsLock (continuously) + a very soft "ticking" noise near the DC Jack,
          I wonder if re-flashing the BIOS might be of any use here.

          As far as I understood, steady flashing either means insufficient power or a CPU/GPU/Motherboard issue. I use the original 65watt power supply.

          There are so many threads out there, but most of the solutions involve flashing codes, which I dont have or claim that you MUST use the original power supply, do a hard reset, reseat the RAM, clean the RAM,...

          by vestaviascott
          Hoping someone here can put me on the right track. I'm trying to troubleshoot/flowchart the "internal projector error" on my newly acquired Facebook Marketplace bought Epson 5040UB projector (3LED, not DLP). Owner said it needed new lamp, actually error code blink pattern indicates "Internal Projector Error, call Epson support". Unit is out of warranty as of 8/19

          Here's what happens:

          1) Power on
          2) Blue power indicator lights and the lens cover motor opens the lens cover, light fan noise heard
          3) Blue status light flashes for appx 4 minutes...
