Can the Sony Bravia Projector VPL-AW15 Lamp timer be reset?

Question

I was thinking of buying this projector and the seller is claiming it only has 7 hours on the lamp. Can the timer be re-set?

If so, is there a way to know how many actual hours are on it?

Thanks in advance~~~~~~~~~

Answer 1

There is an INTERNAL lamp reset, but a MASTER Hour usage in the Service menus on ALL SONY TV sets....

You can reset the lamp hours, but not the master....

A Sony TV tech can access them, but not the general public....
