Hi all, I was wondering if somebody can help me.
I have Jewel Rio 180 tank and have a problem with the lights.
The lights have been working fine until yesterday when (after they had been on for a number of hours) they just turned themselves off.
Now what happens is that when you switch them on, they both come on OK, for about a second, and then they both flicker for about another 3 seconds and then they both turn off.
If I turn off the lights at the switch and wait about 30 seconds and then turn it back on the exact same behaviour occurs.
I'd be grateful for any ideas as to what may be the issue with the lights. They are electronic ballast - which I believe (and I could be wrong) that this means there are no starter motors.
Many many thanks
Steve
