I have a Vendo 345 with no lamps in it. It appears it takes two 48" lamps connected to the inner door and one 24" lamp connected to the outer door along the bottom. However, I can only locate two starters near the ballast area. Only one of the starters is there. It is a FS-2.

My question is, what is the other starter I am looking for? Are these things wired to run two lamps off of one starter?

Thanks!

You need to match the lamps wattage to the starter, most starters handle a range of sizes ( lamp/watts) the physical size of the lamp has nothing to do with the starter selection.

Look at lamps specifications (watts) printed on the bulb end cap
