How to fix a slide that fails to drop into projection position in my Kodak 5600 - BC5601 Carousel?

  Kara WalkerAug 13, 2025
  If a slide isn't dropping into the projection position in your Kodak Projector, it could be due to several reasons: 1. The tray base plate might not be properly indexed. 2. The tray might not be correctly positioned on the projector. 3. The slide mount could be warped or frayed at the corners. 4. The projector might not be level or is tilted too high. To fix this, align the index hole and index notch, reposition the tray, straighten the mount or remount the slide, and ensure the projector is level with the center of the screen.

  If your Kodak Projector isn't advancing to the next slide, the tray might not be positioned correctly, or a slide or foreign object could be stuck in the gate. Try repositioning the tray.

  If there's no light on the screen when a slide is in the Kodak Projector, the power switch might be set to 'Off' or 'Fan', the lamp may be burned out, or the lamp might not be correctly seated in its socket. Try setting the switch to 'Lamp', installing a new lamp or lamp module, and checking the lamp's seating.

  If your Kodak Projector's autofocus struggles when switching between slides, it might be due to mixing open and glass slide mounts. Avoid using a combination of open and glass mounts.

Why is the illumination uneven on the screen of my Kodak 5600 - BC5601 Carousel?
- B
  Barbara JonesSep 1, 2025
  Uneven illumination on your Kodak Projector's screen could be due to a projection lamp not fully seated, a condenser lens that's either not installed or improperly positioned, or a slide mount not properly seated in the projector gate. Check the lamp, condenser lens, and slide position and slide-mount condition.

Why is the slide not in proper focus on the screen of my Kodak 5600 - BC5601 Carousel Projector?
- A
  Amanda CarterSep 4, 2025
  If the slide isn't in focus on your Kodak Projector's screen, it could be due to the slide itself not being sharp, the first slide in the tray not being properly focused, a slide in a different type of mount, or the projection lens being installed improperly. Examine the slide for sharpness, manually focus the center of the first slide, focus manually, and follow the lens installation instructions.

Why is there uneven edge-to-edge focus on my Kodak Projector?
- D
  Deborah SmithSep 8, 2025
  Uneven edge-to-edge focus on your Kodak Projector may occur if the slide itself is not sharp, a curved field lens is used with glass, plastic, or non-embossed mounts, a curved field lens is used for rear projection, or due to lamp performance. Examine the slide. Try a flat field lens. Install a new lamp and try again.
