Re: [DML] D suddenly not starting / damp outside

["Jake" <jkampho@xxxxxxxx>]

Erik,

I had a very similar problem once.  It was the first warm day of the year
and I had my first (and only) ignition problem.  Turned out to be the
connections at the ballast resistors.  Make sure they are clean and seated.
After I did that (inconspicuously in the parking lot at work), no problems
since --even in the POURING rain!

Good luck,

Jake
