Whats the Brand and Model number.

DLP projector Vibrating badly Hi
Looking at a DLP projector that is vibrating and making a loud noise, the picture is fine and clear other that the imaging shaking due to vibration. what would the likly issue be. it is a plus projector
Could it be a fan blade? or is it more likely the Colour weel? if the colour weel is off balence would that make the image bad?

Hi, It is a Plus U5-512h.

Ok i've never worked on that model before. Looks like your going to have to pull it apart and manually check all the fans.

Is it likely to be fixable? can you put a standard fan into the prjector?

How hard is it to sorce Colour wheels? i havent yet dismanteled it but if it is then is there any sort of universal colour wheel or are they hard to fix?

If it is the colour wheel that is faulty ? I would think your would have to replace it with an origional part. Plus does have a website (American) but I don't know if parts are avaiable in Australia.

when powering down the projector the sound and shaking remains till cooldown finnishes. this is likely fan then isnt it or does the colour wheel continue to spin on cooldown?

If it's doing it on cool down I would expect it to be a cooling fan problem. If the fans are the same as computer fans you may be able to put a little crc onto the sleeve/bearing shaft that might quiten it down.

concur with mick on that one, the colour wheel doesn't spin during "cool down" only the fans, probably ones lost a fin, they should be 12volt cooling fans just the same as a computer fan, just be mindful if its got 3 wires then you'll have to replace it with the same
When I explained to the guy what avatar I wanted, that wasn't what I meant!
The issue does seem to be the colour wheel. where can i get another colour wheel for this? i have tried to send off to a local buisness through a local business that services projectors and they have not replied.

Is fixed now. got a new colour wheel for it
