Troubleshooting
DANGER
Shock Hazard.
• Capacitors are capable of discharging high voltage that
will result in death or serious injury. Always turn off the
power switch, unplug the power cord and allow capacitors
time to discharge before servicing.
• Contact with wires that have been made bare by
damaged, cut or worn insulation will result in death or
serious injury. Always replace damaged wiring before
operating the unit.
Possible Cause Problem
1. Bulbs have not been allowed time to cool after last being lit.
Allow 15 minutes between the time the light is shut off and the time
they are restarted. No light
2. The bulb is burnt out or broken.
3. The bulb is not screwed in securely.
4. The connector at the lamp fixture is not pushed together tightly
and locked.
5. The temperature of the ballast is below -20° F (-29° C), thus the
efficiency of the capacitor is not enough to ignite the bulb. When
operating where the temperature of the ballast falls below -20° F
(-29° C), some means of warming the ballast must be used.
6. Low electrical system voltage.
7. A loose connection in the back of the lamp socket in the lamp
holder.
8. Circuit breaker for the socket or outlet has tripped.
9. Wrong replacement bulb or ballast has been installed.
10. Ballast capacitor or transformer has failed.
11. Corrosion has occurred on the bulb base.
