Back when I was at Neumade & BIG SKY, motor control was done with a freq drive. This allowed easy motor control, exact motor speed setting, starting & stopping speeds & times, as well as over-current & missing phase protection. This addition to all 3-phase projectors virtually eliminated all motor problems on all European projectors sold.
As far as the lamp not striking, as noted above, check all the safeties and interlock switches, as well as the auto-strike circuits, and the automation. You can always try temporarily feeding AC voltage directly tot he igniter to verify if it is working. If so, then work backwards through the wiring. I think you wil find the problem that way, usually a switch or connection.
