Hi,
I have a flourescent light fixture that is giving me some trouble. I have seen the following
- if turned on and left for a while ( a few minutes, maybe more) the light comes on.
- if the light is on and it is switched off and then back on, it comes on immediately.
- checking the fixture, I cannot see anything that looks like a Starter so I'm assuming that it is a non-Starter fixture
- the bulbs are old but since the light odes come on I'm assuming that the delay on turning on is not due to the bulbs. Is this correct?
From what I've researched, everything tells me that it is the Ballast. My fixture has 4 tubes and two Ballasts. Before I go to buy new Ballasts I'd like to make sure that that indeed is the problem.
From what I've described, what do you guys think?
Thanks!
