Hello,
Definitely it’ll work. Just Power on the Projector, once started the projector, hold the ENTER button for 7 sec to unlock. Still if it’s not working, then there is connection problem b/w panel & mother board. Then do one thing, if your technically aware then Stop it & remove the socket plug then try to open the project panel carefully then try to disconnect the bus wire cable b/w the panel & mother board then clean bus cable edges & reconnect & fix it as it is earlier. Then try it again.

i have emp-83e is password protected dont have how can i unlock is only show password protected how can i reset pass and unlock
Please check the below points for EMP-83e,
• If an incorrect password is entered three times in succession, the message “The projector’s operation will be locked.” is displayed for about five minutes, and then the projector switches to standby mode. If this happens, disconnect the power plug from the electrical outlet and then reinsert it and turn the projector’s power back on. The projector displays the password entry screen again so that you can enter the correct password.
• If you have forgotten the password, make a note of the “Request Code: xxxxx” number that appears on the screen and contact the
nearest address provided in the International Warranty Terms.
• If you continue to repeat the above operation and input the wrong password thirty times in succession, the following message is displayed and the projector does not accept any more password entries. “The projector’s operation will be locked. Contact Epson as described in your documentation.
