It was working fine for about 90 min, then the lamp suddenly dimmed to about half brightness and I could hear a buzzing noise similar to the sound it makes when the lamp is first starting. I immediately shut it down for about 5-10 min. After powering it on again it worked for about 55 min before doing the same thing. After putting it back together the lamp didn't even try to start. I checked the lamp start circuit and found a shorted thyristor. I'm guessing the lamp was dimming because the start circuit was activating while the lamp was running. The bad part is a Toshiba SF8JZ47. I subbed it with an NTE 5558 and it seems to be working fine again. Andy Cuffe |
