My Barco 808 started behaving oddly last night.
Watching as normal, then suddenly the picture vanishes. The fans are still turning and the thing appears on, but no picture. I power off using 'standby' and restart by hitting '5'. Picture returns (phew thinks me), however the same thing happened about 10 minutes later and this time standby and 5 didn't restore the picture.
So as such the current state of the projector is.
Turn On with 5.
Fans spin
Sound of static from the back of the CRTs as usual
Back of CRTs are glowing that light orangey colour that I think means their on.
But a new sound from towards the power area at the back, perhaps best described as a 'crackling' sound that lasts about 3 seconds.
The internal red LEDs are, Standby, Mains Power, Processor Cycles (Flashing), Block Match
Of the row on green LEDs on the top of the boards, one appears to be not lit. (see picture).
Any advice on further diagnosing this problem, or possible fix suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
