I found this troubleshooting guide and got 117vac at test point A and 0 at tp C. I got 0 at tp D which indicated a bad tube or switches. I cleaned the switches and the 117z3 tube socket. Still no voltage. As I said earlier, the tube lights bright when I first turn it on and then dims. This has happened several times. I have to let it be off for over an hour for it to light when I turn it on.
I will get the tube checked or get another.
Is it likely I have fried the tube at ignition?
