Crane 432 lighting issue

Post by Lee@BIGBAPS »

Hello the internal tube lights went out and replacing the tubes hasn't worked, sometimes when I close the door the lights flash on for a second so the bulbs are OK. I heard the issue could be the ballast and I've found the part on vendparts but need to be sure that's definitely the fault before I buy the new part. I can't find any starter switches inside the door.

Cheers, Lee.

Thanks Matt, maybe I got the model number wrong but this machine doesn't have starter switches, It has a lighting ballast instead which a day after removing still smells like a fireworks display! So it shall be replaced.
