Does anyone else's Tourmaster pilot light flicker? Mine flickers intermittently...sometimes it does it a lot and sometimes it doesn't seem to do it at all. Amp seems to work fine otherwise (no sound loss when it flickers). Think its just a bad pilot light?
 
Mine was doing it, and I found that the light bulb was loose in the socket. Take of the the jewel, and rotate the bulb to the right as you push in. It is spring loaded and fits in a twist motion. Should fix you right up.

That bulb is really hard to get your fingers on and turn. I popped it out, put it back in and the flicker is mostly gone. It still likes to waver in intensity but it no longer turns completely off. That bulb seems to be very picky about where exactly it sits in there too because I had to play with it for a bit before I got it into a position that didnt flicker. Appeciate the advice!
 
Mine used to do this. It has nothing to do with the power supply. It's just the bulb coming a little loose, that's all.
 
That's good to know. Already replace the PT once so lets just say I get a little paranoid when anything seems amiss.
 
mine started flickering and a month later the PT went. if it starts flickering again...well...just sayin'..........
 
Don't panic !! It is probably just a loose bulb....not a power transformer.
