  If your Sharp Projector shows no picture or doesn't start, ensure the lamp unit cover is correctly installed, the remote control battery isn't depleted, the lens shutter is open, and the correct input mode is selected. Also, check that all cables are properly connected, external devices are powered on, external output is set correctly on connected notebooks, the 'Signal Type' is correct, the video signal format is properly set, and 'Bright' isn't at its minimum.
