Replaced Lamp The Temp & Lamp Light Remain On.

I replaced the lamp in my Dell projector and the Temp & Lamp light stay on. I cannot reset anything because the unit will not turn on due to the amber lights. Please provide me step by step instructions to reset things. I checked the owners manual and it does not give any information to fix the problem.
