I have replaced the diodes, and filter caps. the hot,the fly, the resistor, the regulator and still no luck. I put a bulb across the Ceramic resistor, and the light comes on at plug in, and is not excessively bright. still no turn on. I don't have a print on this unit, and I am really at a loss as to where to look now.
