Title: Wanted: two under cabinet puck lights
Post by: Sven and Kristi on November 13, 2017, 06:52:22 pm
I have two puck lights that won't hold the pins securely.  Does anyone have a source for replacing these?

In my 320 I have Puck lights under the bathroom vanity and one on each side of the bed under the upper end cabinet.  If the puck lights you are looking to replace are in the living room area I would steal the puck lights from the bedroom cabinets and find an over the counter replacement or the bedroom cabinets.  You can't see the pucks under there anyways or remove the ones from the bathroom vanity and replace those.

Sven, if you mean that the LED lights have to small a diameter pin to make good contact in the holes of fixture then just put a bit af a bend in them then replace. This should give contact somewhere in that socket. I had to do this to make a few of mine work and they have for a few years now. Use thin nosed pliers to do it.

I replaced all 29 halogen bulb puck lights in my 1996 U320 with LED frosted glass fixtures. I still have several fixtures with glass covers, and lots of halogen bulbs, but do not have any of the thin gold rings. You are welcome to all you want for just shipping cost. I believe, however, that you may have the thick gold ring type fixtures that Foretravel started using before 2000.

I would like to say that I thought about this, but I didn't.  Great idea John.  Roger (Roger and Susan...) offered to send me a couple that he had in exchange for a donation to the local food bank, so hopefully that would work.
I'm going to add more thoughts under a new heading.
