Hi Dave, I'm not familiar with that particular SHARP model, but you said "any help". Most use a 2000hr. metal halide bulb and yes you should get continuity on a good bulb. You might also check for proper voltage on the socket, and try this site for replacement bulb. http://www.interlight.biz/images/webpages/lcdprojecotrlamp.htm Hope this helps.
