X-Files update: We're almost there. I bought the replacement ballast, fluoro, starter and tombstones and installed everything last night (thanks to my dad for lending a hand as well).
Today, Dan was nice enough to take time out of his day to come around and wire up the fluoro to the cabinet. We tested it by rigging up an old cable and plugging it into the power point. We discovered the old fluoro tube was gone, but luckily I had a new one ready. It fired up first go. Dan then ran wiring down to the front of the cabinet and connected to the mains supply. We tidied up the wiring in the cabinet and then put the playfield down. Flicked the switch and the fluoro flickered on in X-Files again.
Next step is to get that brand new transformer and install it. It's been a big headache, but a good learning experience. Everyone's patience and input here is much appreciated.
Adam.
