Cause: The fuse feeding the large 30,000 mfd lamp matrix capacitor in the backbox has blown, or there is a broken lug on that capacitor or the bridge beside it.

Checks

  • Check that fuse.
  • Inspect the capacitor and bridge lugs and wires.

Fix

  • Replace the fuse and repair any broken lug or wire.
