[Frameworks] EIKI slimline 16mm projector query

[Dominic Angerame]

No Problem Mark. I have repaired many Pagaents (they are not easy) except the electronics. It is really just mechanical common sense to fix many of the problems as long as you are able to open up the projector, most of them can be fixed relatively easy.

It also could just be dirt so check for that. Ape city.com <http://city.com/> has manuals for many projectors and this may help show how to remove back cover.

I've never worked on projectors before.  How complicated is it to 'repair' it (assuming that is possible)?  I was told it was a belt issue at one point; should I buy and install a new belt?  Tinker?  Any illumination much appreciated.
