If stop lamp bulbs, repalce the stop lamp switch on the brake pedal

Actually you need just the lamp, I mean you can get the housing also, but it's not necessary. WIth the lmap itself you'll be just fine. It's not hard to change, there's this page where they have video guides of how to replace them. www.fixyourdlp.com

It's probable that your lamp is alreayd gone, since it alreayd reached the time that lamps usually last, I recommend you replace the lmap and see how it works :) discountdashmerchantdotcom you will the troubleshoot is free :)

You have 1 of 2 possible problems.

(1) You need a new lamp.

(2) You have an overheating problem.

Just a quick couple of notes about your projector. It is a DLP projector (not LCD) and as such the machine as no air filters to clean. It does have air intake and air exhaust grilles, but no air filters to clean. This next part comes directly from the owner' manual for your projector:

When the lamp operation time exceeds 2000 hours*1 *2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset.

Your machine is designed to give visual warning messages at 1500 hours used, and 1900 hours used. Did you see any visual warning about lamp life over the past few months?

If you were experiencing an overheating problem, a "TEMPERATURE!!" message would flash up on the screen just before the unit shuts down. If there is no warning, you don't have a heat problem.

If you have a replacement lamp available, install it and reset the lmap hours according to your user manual. If you don't have the manual, google it on the web (it available).

Turn on the projector, and reset the lamp timer.
(1) While the projector running, press the MENU button to open the menu.
(2) Choose the “OPTION” on the menu using the / button, then press the
button or ENTER button.
(3) Choose the “LAMP TIME” using the / button, then press and hold the
RESET button for 3 seconds.
(4) Choose the “RESET” using the button.
memo When the lamp has been replaced after

Press the MENU button to display the "MAIN MENU", and then select "OPTION".
Press the ENTER button to display the "OPTION" menu, and then select "LAMP RUNTIME".
Press and hold the ENTER button for approximately 3 seconds.
The "LAMP RUNTIME" will change to "TIME RESET [POWER OFF]".
Turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
This will reset the cumulative usage time for the lamp unit to "0".

Will you will have to replace it now because this is the most likely cause for the blinking lights. Look in the instruction book for the directions on how to remove the lamp. You will find that it has burned out. It is easy to replace. You can order one from JVC or a service center, or a parts distributor.
