Help ! Epson EMPTW10 - its all gone yellow

I bought an Epson Powerlite 10 in the US about a year ago (i think the equivallent here is the TW10) . Up until about a month ago everything was fine.

Unfortunately the picture has now gone all yellow. Folk have told me that this is likely to be down to one of two things:
- a dirty lens
- a broken LCD panel

the first is easy to sort out but the latter means bye bye projector

The other problem is that finding out will cost about £200 which doesn't seem worth it for an entry level.

Can anyone advise - is there a way of testing the panels at home?

Any advice gratefully received

Contact GM Services on 01908 321103 and ask for a price.

thank you for the advice. I contacted them but they themselves only do Sanyo - they were helpful though and gave me some other numbers so I won't give up hope just yet

This may not be relevant to your situation, but I had the same problem with my projector some months back, everything went yellow.

Turned out to be a poor connection inside one of the component leads, which i must have moved somehow, replaced the lead and everything was fine.

I cannot remember which of the three leads it was now, hope this helps.

thanks - will try that when I get home and feedback tomorrow

Not sure about this model, but if you are feeding it with an RGB lead, check that all three are leads working.

thanks - will try replacing the leads
