Optoma HD800X with blurry picture

[raelmadrid]

Apparently this can be fixed by 'cleaning the colour wheel'

Can anyone confirm if this is true or if this is a common fault with this model?

tia!

*Edit*

I saw the posting on eBay searching for it. You should maybe ask to see if this guy got an answer too http://www.avforums.com/forums/proje...y-picture.html

*EDIT EDIT*

The ebay post does say you have 7 days to return etc... Not sure what that is actually worth but you could reason with the guy before you buy.

looks easy enough - you can get replacement wheels for $85 but from what I have read dodgy colour wheel causes colour banding and not blurry picture

might take a punt
