Well, it is five evenings and 68 bucks in goods and shipment later too!

One evening went to clean the thing.
Another is to figure out the caps to order from the sch (like I said mostly a wasted effort as the values did not match, sometimes grossly).
The third was to unsolder the burnt coil and to draw the sketch of its connection.
The fourth and fifth went to recapping.

And now we wait for the ballast to come. I hope it will take just one more evening.
