I have an older ~200w sodium lamp that wont fire up. Every now and then (randomly, not over any time period), it will flash, like its trying to start, then stop.
The innards of the light are a transformer and a large capacitor. There are no other parts, other than the socket and light.
Where would I begin diagnosing? I dont want to buy a new bulb incase the lamp itself is faulty, as they arent really cheap.
