I was going to remind him of this myself until he told us that his remote doesn't work.
I have a Powerpoint presentation that describes how to reset the counter and how to recognise the difference between 5kV and 15kV lamps and ballasts. I can upload it if needed.

The set keeps a record of lamp usage. To reset the hours count to zero for a new lamp, you need to follow a certain procedure.
The following procedure apppears to apply to most models:
After replacing lamp, enter IN-START mode. Select "LAMP replace" and enter that mode using volume (+) key. To reset the lamp use time, press the "OK" key.
Otherwise, you may see "Total time reset?", in which case you respond with "Yes" using the volume (+) key. Then press "OK".
For other models, the instruction is to "turn off by IN-STOP key in ADJ remocon".

Problem solved, fortunately it was just some bad solder on one of those connector sockets. Now what was that about a lamp timer? I've never worked on a DLP set before so I'm not familiar with it.
