Neon BEER sign problem (Not staying lit) .......... Any Neon Pro's out there ?

I just got a nice FREE Doc's Hard Lemon (Anheuser Bush) neon sign & when I pull the cord it lights up & everything looks good & fine............ Let go of the cord & it turns off . I figured if I held the cord at the pulled position , it would stay lit (like some fluorescent lights need to be started) but it just just shuts off when you let go of the cord . This unit stands about 3ft tall by about a foot wide .

Here's all the info from the back of the unit :
Item #1018241
Mt. Vernon Neon , Mt. Vernon IN
Dec 5 '01
Power Supply : EverTron series MP12 (Everbrite Electronics)

I figure it's either the switch inside the PSU or the PSU itself . Can anyone here lend some info my way ?

I'd really appreciate it 🙂


 
Sounds like a bad switch... if you have even basic electronics or wiring experience, it shouldn't be hard to fix.
