Hello. Please pardon my ignorance in this matter. I would appreciate any help I can get.
8633
Not the actual fridge but looks just like this one.
I just moved into a new home and it came with a double door display coke fridge in the basement (after some searching this fridge seems to be a TRUE GDM 33). In preparation to start using it, I noticed the light was not working. Thinking it was the bulb, I replaced and it still was not lighting up. The fridge itself seems to work fine. Since it is not the bulb, I was curious how simple it might be to get it repaired/replaced.
It was suggested to me that either the ballasts and/or the starter may be bad. Could that be the only issue? I was perhaps trying to find a manual for the fridge but I am not familiar with other fridge model names as searching TRUE GDM 33 in the books section brought up many results. Before I start taking things apart, I wanted to get some information on what I was doing. Can I just take it out and replace it at home depot? Will I need to start cutting wires to get it out?
I appreciate any type of help. Thanks for your time.
