Lord. Now I've stepped in it. Yes, that's what I meant to say though it may not have been very clear. Two 20 w fluorescents together provide more light than a single 40 w incandescent, while consumin

Seems your ignition switch is hosed, indeed. Something inside has come adrift. Betcha $0.39 this is the entire problem, and that there is intermittant and/or high resistance contact to the "run" posi
