  1. Just an update. I put a 22k Ohm 4 w resistor in line between the place where the ring connector on the grey power wire attaches to the fl-100 and the ring connector itself. It's the only place I could see it going in series as there is no room inside the fl-100 itself that I could see. (I'm not a technician). While holding the cover switch down with a screwdriver the bulb lit up momentarily but then the light on the front of the scanner switched to flashing red. Out of frustration I removed the resistor and reinstalled the old bulb. The scanner now works. Go figure. If anyone can repair these things and post a detailed "How To" it would be much appreciated.
  2. I received my ccfl lamps yesterday. To my surprise they are actually 3 mm longer than the one in the scanner, so 120 mm length is correct. It does however just fit in the FL-100 assembly. After swapping the tube the red light is still flashing. Henry(UK) could you advise how you placed the resistor?

  4. I just opened up my FL-100 assembly and measured the CCFL with a micrometer. The length measured as 123 mm not 120. I am ordering a couple from a US retail firm online and will report how / if they work.
