I just picked up a Ms. Pac / Galaga 20th Anniversary mini cabaret, and unfortunately, the marquee light is not working. I opened the area to take a look at the light (picture attached), but I am not sure what to do next. The nuts holding in the light fixture are in awkward places on the sides and top. I am also not sure where I could get a replacement flourescent tube of this size.

Could anyone offer some advice? Thanks.

You twist the bulb. It has two pegs on each end of it, you twist until they are aligned with the slits in the sockets on each end, then pull the bulb out.

After you do this, you might be able to get to the nuts better I guess.

The bulb not working could also be the $1.00 starter lots of these lamps use. Its the round cylinder thing (usually round silver metal) which this set up may have. You twist and pull to remove that.

Normally the Ballast do not generally go bad, its the big block transformer looking thing, under the metal cover.

The Home Depot has bulbs of all kinds too.
