I HAVE 6 STUDIO COLORS TOTAL. ONE OF THEM IS SIGNIFIGANTLY DIMMER THAN THE OTHERS. A LOCAL TECH REPLACED THE IGNITOR. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS. I TALKED TO HIM ON THE PHONE TODAY AND HE THOUGHT THAT IT COULD BE THE BALLAST. IS THIS HARD TO REMOVE. NOW I USED TO BE A MECHANIC SO I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT I COULD SNAKE IT OUT OF THERE. I NEED HELP ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT THANKS
#1 Clean the unit. Paying special attention to the dicros and lenses. Caution! Delicate glass. I use a support I made from foam to do cleanings but the support of a few fingers does well. #2 Check the light path for misaligned objects or UFO's that got in somehow.;) #3 Optoimize the lamp. #4 Check voltage at fixture. #5 Check to make sure the Iris/dimmer opens properly. #6 Check shutter it may not be opening all the way.
If nothing works :dunno: scratch your head and come back here.:rolleyes:
