I have heard that if the light burns out and I have repaired 2 lamp modules that failed in that way. The bad component was a triac. I replaced it with a 6 or 8 amp 400 Volt plastic unit I got at radio shack. Pinout was the same as in the module. It was a chore to repair the modules - but they were out of warranty. X-10 warrants the modules for 6 months - and will repair for $2 (??) within that period. Note: they must be genuine X-10 modules to be guaranteed. Some Radio Shack and other modules were made in Taiwan not by X-10 - they are not warranted. Roy Frederick (royf@attctc.UUCP) Dallas County Data Services (214) 653-6340 504 Records Bldg.
