Dell 4320

I have a Dell 4320 projector...The bulb light was solid and the power light was blinking. Replaced the bulb and it still won't power on and now the bulb light and temperature light are solid orange and the power light still blinks orange. I tried looking through the manual but I don't know what could be the issue. Anyone ever encountered this or have any suggestions?

donofameage,

Below is troubleshooting information for the 4320 projector.

The following table lists the common lamp-related problems  and their  possible solutions.

Problem Solution
The lamp is burned out or  makes a popping sound. When the lamp reaches its end of life, it may            burn out and may make a loud popping sound.             If this occurs,  the projector does not turn back          on. You need to replace the lamp.
The lamp light is solid amber. If the lamp light is solid amber, replace the          lamp.
The lamp light is blinking amber. If the lamp light is blinking amber, the lamp            module connection may be disrupted. Check the lamp module and ensure that it is            properly installed.
            If the lamp and  power lights are            blinking amber, the lamp driver has failed and            the projector will automatically shut down.
             If the lamp and temperature lights are blinking            amber and the power light is solid blue, the            color wheel has failed and the projector will            automatically shut down.
            To clear the projection mode, press and hold          the Power button for 10 seconds.
The temperature light is  solid amber. The projector has overheated. The display            automatically shuts down. Turn the display on            again after the projector cools down. If the          problem persists, contact Dell Inc.
The temperature light is  blinking amber. The projector fan has failed and the projector            will automatically shut down. Try to clear the            projector mode by pressing and holding the             Power button for 10 seconds. Please wait            for about five minutes and try to power up again. If the          problem persists, contact Dell Inc.
