O.k., I'll answer myself then...
I think it's for a fuse.

Well, depending on how deep that is. I assume you talking about the round black thing with screw threats. If it is deep, then probably a fuse but you are missing a cap. If the hole is not very deep. Could be a light. You should trace the wires out. Might not even be used or required.

Thanks Josh.
Well I am just about positive it is for a fuse. It says, "15A" and "250V", so I bought a fuse for a microwave which has those same amps and volts numbers.
The only problem is, like you said, I'm missing the cap. I assume the fuse won't work without it. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement fuse cap? I really want to find one. Right now I just bipassed the wires so that the vend will work, but obviously I'd feel safer with a fuse that can pop if there are any problems.

From the location it is mounted, I would guess it to be a push button switch, missing the button. This momentary switch is only used to stop the interior fan while the door is open. Glen

Really? Very interesting. Even if it says, ""15A" and "250V" on it?

um, what does it turn on and off when you bypass it. It looks to far back to be a switch. Um, you can try radio shack for a complete fuse replacement. I would say the cap matches but I found out there is a few different sizes.

Gosh, I've never seen a Soda machine with a fuse before. Maybe they expected it to blow out quite often, so they put it in a convienient location.(kidding)  '> Just follow the wires and tell us where they go

Here is an idea. Could a service tech have put in a light to help see when working on it at night? Just a thought. Other than that I think it is a door switch as well.

Mark,
I'm a little froggy on actually where this is located; can you post another picture a little further away so we can see where it's located in relationship to other components...?
