Socket set
I removed the switch housing (4 screws), replacing the switch in the housing was a snap. It took 5 minutes, cost $8 and light works like new!
Why didn't I order this part and do the repair earlier? Very simple.

I removed the broken trim. Then I popped off one of the trim brackets, slid the trim in, and reinserted the trim bracket. I took 1 minute to perform. The part was perfect. Ordering was a breeze because there was a good schematic diagram to select the correct part.

Checked compressor with amp meter, and found it was not running, found Overload Switch bad.
When removing old switch watch carefully which lug you move wires from, so you will know which
lug to put the new switch on.
BE SURE YOU KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT
ELECTRICITY!!
