Hey all, just getting ready to dive into my newly acquired Lycian 1209 HP follow spots that have MSR 575 HR bulbs because one of them won't strike.
Am I right in thinking it's the capacitor that could be blown?
The fans all come on, so I'm going to check to see if they've got a separate power supply from the lamp; but these spots usually begin to strike as soon as the power is turned on. Any advice would be appreciated..
Thanks as always for your time and assistance (btw I suck at the search function and didn't come up with a good answer there which is why I'm posting..)

Doing some research.. I believe those models have an ignitor module that will need replaced..
Purchase History: Got them used from a production company.. so they're not new.. did replace the previously used bulb w/ a new one.. same result no strike.. will try with another bulb as that's a fine point about bulbs being D.O.A. but no warranty as such..
