AAAARGH! One bank of track lighting is f***ed up!
Edited on Sun Jun-26-05 02:23 AM by CanuckAmok
One track has the connection, with one lamp going left, and two lamps going right. The two to the right of the connector are cutting in and out... there's a short up there. They flash on and off at random, and when they're "on", they make a buzzing sound which scares the cats.

They're 18' in the air, with no way to get to them!

It's driving me NUTS.

on edit: 18', not 18". If it was 18", there wouldn't be as much of a need for a ladder.

3. Throw water on it.
And then poke it with a curtain rod.
