Checking the Projector’s Lights
If your projector isn’t working correctly, first turn it off, wait for it to cool, and unplug it. Then plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. If this doesn’t solve the problem, check the lights on top of the projector. They alert you to problems with projector operations.
