Introduction

Go to step 1

Use this guide to replace the bulb on your AuKing M8-F projector.

The bulb is a part of the projector that shines through its optical component(s) to create and magnify the image. If the bulb is not properly functioning, the projector can result in a black, blank screen. In some cases, the bulb may wear off when used too much than the exceeded maximal time. The bulb will likely need a replacement if your projector is showing any of the symptoms mentioned.

Before continuing with this guide, please take a look at the troubleshooting page to see if the cause is mentioned in this page. Be sure to turn off your projector completely and disconnect any cable before starting this guide.
