Light switch in bathroom controls overhead fan and fluorescent lights. They begain flickering after many years of bright non-flickering use. I followed suggestions found on internet. Replaced bulbs and, when that did not solve problem, replaced the ballast. Problem continues with flickering and low level of illumination. No problem with fan.

Any electricians want to explain why this is? Is it a safety feature?

I work at a school and the kids and I are off for Spring Break this week. I am trying to manage my time the best that I can but really need some help! I need to do my spring cleaning, but I also want to do things with the kids while we're off. I also am highly addicted to Yahoo Answers! so I really need some advice on how to stretch my time out further... :) Anyone else trying to do this too?!

I recently purchased a new dishwasher and washed a pan with leftover spaghetti sauce in it, now the white walls and door of the dishwasher are stained orange. I have tried Tang and ran that through an empty dish cycle twice, and it has not lessened the stains. What else does anyone recommend trying?

I mean, not weird stuff, but vegetables. I saw something like beets growing in the small compost heap in the corner of the yard, and I was wondering if that happens often, and is it safe to eat?

i've just bought lavender seeds to grow, and it says to sow them indoors 6-10 weeks before the last spring frost, but it's already spring here, should i still grow them indoors for that period of time, or do i just plant the seeds outside in a place with a lot of sunlight?

I have been using Murphy's Oil Soap and it cleans great, but I would like something that would put a shine on them. Any suggestions?

We have 5 ceiling-mounted, hard-wired, dual-tube flourescent lights in our garage, switched from the wall. The ballasts are black rectangular boxes.

When I turn them on, two of them don't usually light. If I flip the switch 15-20 times, these lights will come on - sometimes one bulb, sometimes both bulbs, & sometimes one or both will just flicker.

If I continue flipping the switch until they both illuminate fully, and leave them on for an hour or more (approximately), then they will light with no problem when I turn them off and back on again.

Are fluorescent ballasts heat sensitive, so even if failing, they will work okay if heated up? Or does it sound like it could be just the bulbs?

I'd just change the bulbs, but it's an 18 foot ceiling, and I'd rather at least have a clue before I climb up there and start messing around.

Also, even the ballasts for these fixtures are a bit pricey, so I'd like to know before I invest the money in ballasts I may not need.

Thanks!

It just stopped working yesterday, i didn't notice to begin with but it started to get cold, when i checked the central heating wasn't on. I looked at the boiler and the pilot light ws out. I reignighted the pilot light and it sounded like it was working, but then it started making a clonking sound and cut out. I have tried this several times, but it keeps doing the same thing. What could it be and how could it be fixed. I will call a gas engineer out tommorrow, think it could be costly........

It's a jacket that can't be machine washed. Wool inside and a fake fur collar on the hood.
