My guess is that it's not possible to see without opening the projector and see how it behaves. Is the bulb somewhat "clear" or dark gray/black (sometimes they can pass away with a big bang at end of life and possibly damage the projector)? Does the colorwheel spin? It should be possible to open it up enough to see these events though. I'm not sure how much you know about electronics and stuffs so i will also include a warning: Don't touch any live parts in the projector, especially around the lamp. Just observe what happens. Also: Keep it clean if you open up the projector!

I hope this answer is helpful for you.

thanks.
