This Dell 1650 had a melted lamp connector. Seems to be a common problem on this chassis. Reminds me of the Optoma HD26,HD141, GT1080 series etc. That chassis is really configurable...

Turns out it's basically the same as the Optoma DH400, DU380, EH416, W416, WU416, X416. The Dell 1550 is basically the same as well.

I spliced the lamp connector into the harness and got it back up and running.

Lastly, I lost the last few minutes of the footage when I recorded the projector on the large screen. I decided to post this video anyway. Hope you find it useful.

Thanks for watching!
