o2btanner Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I'm a newbie to vending, and have four machines with display lights not working or missing. I'm having a hard time finding replacment parts. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The lighting systems in soda machines are very basic. They consist of a ballast, sockets and lamps - the wiring diagram is on the front of the ballast. Normally the lamps are F72T12CW where F is the length in inches, T is the diameter in 1/8" increments and CW stands for Cool White (try the Daylite color for a more vibrant look). Due to the long lamp length, you'll probably need to go to an electrical supply house to buy these products or Grainger. It might be a good time to convert your system to LED lighting if your current system needs more than a couple of quick fixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
