Dale,

Welcome to SMC ! ! !
I'm sure you'll find the Community very helpful ! ! !
We've just migrated to a completely revamped website and are hoping the dust settles soon...

Welcome to the site!
What kind of bulb is it?  Do you think your local large hardware store might have it (Menards, Home Depot)?  I have had good luck with bulbs at Top Bulb (http://www.topbulb.com/).

I might add, when you need any compressor work, visit Global Compressors.  The guy awesome.  Also I make it a point to click on the sponsors when visiting this site.

it was keeping drinks at 36 deg's but now it is keeping them at 50 deg. afriend of mine is going to check it out.he works on appliances.he thinks that is the problem because it does not get colder when i changed the temp setting .compressor only runs longer

my friend checked it out and said freon was good but the compressor was to hot to touch and not kicking out like it should so i guess i will be have him put me a new on on when he gets the time. everything else seems to be ok
