Diagnostics
If the bulb does not light after about 10 minutes when the work
light is properly connected and the power switch turned on,
determine whether the bulb is burnt out or if the ballast has
failed. The easiest way is to replace the bulb with one that you
know works. If the replacement bulb does not light, the ballast
must be replaced.
WARNING

Handling light fixtures when hot could result in death or serious
injury. Always keep clear of light fixtures when illuminated or

The ballast consists of a ballast transformer, and a capacitor.
Generally, the capacitor will be the cause of a ballast problem.
