Common problems
Start from the symptom

When your Anker projector turns on or spins its fans without casting any light, the problem usually stems from thermal safety lockouts, insufficient power delivery, or a failing light driver.
Anker Projector Overheating / Fan Noise

Anker Projector No HDMI Signal
If your Anker Nebula projector displays a 'No Signal' banner or a black screen when connected via HDMI, the issue usually stems from a DisplayPort/HDMI handshake glitch, an unsupported resolution, or cable degradation.
Anker Projector HDMI Not Working
When your Anker projector displays 'No Signal' or a black screen over HDMI, the issue is usually an eARC configuration conflict, HDCP handshake failure, or insufficient streaming stick power. Follow this step-by-step triage guide to restore video.
Anker Projector No Picture But Has Sound
If your Anker Nebula projector is playing audio normally but showing a blank screen, the issue typically stems from an HDCP handshake glitch, corrupted display drivers, or a failed LED light engine.
