Hello all,
Happy New Year to everyone,
we have about another 9hrs till I let off the fireworks off our terrace
Just a quick question about my friends Marquee 9500LC,
His image seems to do this intermittently, brightness decreases/ or increases about 3 clicks,
then back to normal then cycles randomly up and down.
It is random, can do it from first turn on, or like 2hrs later, then starts.
I went through his complete machine and cleaned every contact and socket.
His room is very cold around 10'c at the moment, but I don't see this as a problem, as there is no humidity.
I will be checking his supply voltage from the wall outlet, but I don't think that this is the cause.
Would appreciate any idea's or comments.
Cheers
Steve

Too bad my sister isn't a tech (unless you need some cancer research done), she's in Basel right now..
If this is floor mounted, then I'd suspect a glycol leak that's gotten into the backplane.
If not, then the last 9000LC I had this happen in (red tube only) was the CLM or VIM. I sent the customer both, he replaced both, problem went away. It could be the HVPS but I doubt it.

Yes it is all 3 tubes,
Ceiling mounted.
Hmm, Thanks for the pointers, I will swap out both and see if it fixes.
I don't wish cancer upon anyone,
Hope your Sister is enjoying the fresh dump of snow we had last night.
Cheers
Steve
