The fixtures that are giving me problems are all 8' High Output two bulb fixtures. Between the two barns there are a total of 14 HO fixtures. There are also 5 four foot shop lights with the 2 pin bulbs. Humidity doesnt seem to bother the four foot fixtures, just the 8' HO fixtures. Cold bothers the 4' but I can live with that.
The HO fixtures are all well grounded and there is no starters in them. I know the two fixtures I replaced the ballast in now have electronic ballast. I dont think the old ones were. The new ones dont seem to be any better however.
The ones I replaced the bulbs in, the bulbs came from a new box but it was purchased in a bulk purchase several years ago. So the bulbs are NOS I guess you could say.
The HO type end is not going to be easy to wipe down since the contacts are somewhat recessed. If I use contact cleaner and compressed air , do you think that would help?

Dad bought the 202 new in 1962, and I recall quite clearly going to the dealer with him to sign for it.
