The Epson Powerlite 915W is a WXGA conference room projector released in March 2011 and discontinued in January 2014.

Why does the projector shut off?

Turning on the projector results in all proper sounds and good picture. After a short period of time the unit shuts off and can be restarted. No error leds are present.

@andydavis38123 Has the fan been cleaned out? Has any thermal paste been replaced?

After some investigation, found that the lamp cover switch was the culprit. There are points inside the switch that needed to be cleaned because of burning from arching because the switch is not available. I think someone else was already in there as the springs appeared to be installed backwards. Now I have to find out why I have no blue background.
