Hello,

Just was playing a great game on my apollo 13 machine.
Did notice that a spot light was very bright! Brighter than normal. I replaced the bulb.

Now when I restart the game I can only look at the four spotlights and I am wondering if they are brighter than before.

What could cause this ? Were should I look.

Greetings ,

Hi , thanks for the suggestion. Tried to find the video but without succes.

Anybody here a suggestion how I should handle this problem?
I am not very technical, how could I check thoe voltage in the lightsocket? Just putting in the red and black pins from the tester? Should it read 6 volts?

Any hel would be vert welcome.

Greeting from the netherlands,

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I did check the lightsockets and all the spots have 6.1 volts.

If the socket has 6.1 volt there is no problem correct?
I would say that they were not so bright before but I guess I cannot do much else. I did turn the spots a little bit.

The light are 555 wedge bulbs so I cannot put in the other bulbs.

Greetings

Bas
