HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, damnit, my bad, I have a spare. Sorry to bother you guys. 
Seriously though, it's giving me three codes:
69 (Nice number!)
6C
6E
The only code I believe is related to the failure is the ABNORMAL HV.
I think it is simply the power supply.
I've been having this with dramatic temperature changes in my Theater with both projectors since day one.
They DO NOT like to be bounced +20-20 degrees (F).
I've had this happen on both projectors and usually all I had to do is fire up the working one and once the box warmed up the other would fire. Not this time.
I hate this time of year!!!!!!

Yep, it happens EVERY year this time for two years now. Damn FALL!!!!!!!!! 
I used a laser temp probe and the hush box was actually cooler.
It's the Boeing projector. She made it over 14,000 hours!!!!!!!! CONGRATS TO HER!!!!!!!!

It's actually more my fault than anything. I've been running the babies to hot for the last couple of years.........

So, what's the scoop Big Dog? You think you will be able to fix the pj, or replace it?
Sorry to hear of the break-down.

Arli is on his way over with the PA Board and the Power Supply from the loaner.
Fingers crossed. I'm hoping to accomplish this without having to take the projector off of the ceiling.

Arli and I just added a 6" exhaust with 2 500CFM fans going into my computer room. Yes, that thing is pumping some heat.
Here is a pic of the new front Arli built:
I'm going to cut out the part around the lenses to see if that improves airflow. I'm thinking it will.

I was talking about the Ampro..... As no reasonable human uses them for a theater projector.
Whats the in box temperature? The airflow on that must be horrible if the lens open is the only inlet.

Instead of opening the front, why not consider some forced air flow via very low noise fans as are typically used in hush boxes?

Arli and I removed the lens cover and are putting it back together.
I'll monitor the temp and report back.
