Introduction
As projectors are used frequently, lamps will occasionally burn out and need to be replaced in order to continue functioning properly. A good projector will go through multiple lamps as it is used. This guide details how to replace the lamps in Panasonic PT-DW640US projectors. This replacement is important because it will save you money and allow you to continue using the projector long into the future. There is no previous experience needed in order to be able to complete this fix.
This replacement will require use of a Phillips screwdriver and two replacement bulbs. It is important to be extremely cautious while handling the lamps as they contain mercury that is toxic upon exposure. Ensure that the projector is fully unplugged, turned off, and cooled down prior to performing this bulb replacement.
