My dad has a fluorescent light fixture in his garage with tubes that
barely glow. I went to the Borg and bought a pair of replacement tubes
but no improvement. I do not smell anything near the fixture so my
thinking is the ballast is probably still good. That leaves the starter.

For whatever reason, I couldn't figure out how to release the cover
panels (it's an 8' fixture) so I couldn't get in to look any closer.
Would you agree it's probably the starter gone bad? We can get somebody
else to swap it but I just wonder if I'm in for a little or a lot.
