Hello,
I have a Juwel Vision 180 and my light bar has stopped working.
I've tried changing the bulb/fuse and it made no difference.
So after reading the topic about fixing the light bar I thought it'd probably be the ballast.
Today I've opened the bar to check on the ballast I need and I haven't found anything like what I saw in the 'fixing light bar' post.
As you can see it doesn't look like the ballast in the other post. There's also only 3 wires going in (not 8!).
So I need some advice on what to do next.
I found this post:
http
/www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/358406-juwel-multilux-ballast-replacement/
which is changing the ballast in a 180 Vision. Inside their bar they had a 2x 36w ballast. I could buy a new one of these but as I have three input wires, and not 8, I wouldn't know how I should connect it.
Any help/advice/ideas would be greatly appreciated. I'm thinking that I might just need to buy a new bar![S :S :S](/images/smilies/ipb/wacko.png)
