    Parting with Remnants of Collection and Looking for Advice

    Hey, I've just picked up my first ever non-EM game before Christmas, and so far, it has been fantastic.

    Paragon -- All playfield lights out

    My beloved Paragon developed a problem that I just can't figure out. Desperate for advice. ALL of the playfield lights got flickery, and now are not working at all. First, I replaced the rectifier board (AS-2518-18) with an all-new replacement. No change. Then I got a replacement lamp...
