Two problems:

1. We got this projector Friday and have run 11 Regular 8MM reels through with no problem. Then the light intermittently went off and on and then it would not come on at all. We have tested the bulb with an O-meter and it says it's still good. The bulb contacts are making a connection and I even cleaned off the contact areas and still no light. We've also checked all the wiring-- Any suggestions of what else to check?

2. When I try to run the Super 8 reels through, it shows split frames--the frame adjustment does not help. And it also projects the sprocket holes. Any ideas on how to adjust this?

Thanks~

*Next day* We replaced the light and still doesn't work?? Everything else runs, but the bulb does not.
