Found them at lowes, broke apart of little can and ripped out the parts I
needed, and that was the problem with the lights! Thanks all!

I am troubleshooting my lights as they don't light and found that within

the
bulb area there are a set of parts that are unfamiliar with me. They are

in
series with the power line to each bulb and it looks like some type of

light
bulb, no identification, 1" long and very black/discolored towards the

tip,
wired in parallel with it device is a 1/2" plastic case thing that looks

as
though it contains staples from a common household stapler, possibly some
type of inductor? What I have found from the mfg is that the wall wart

holds
the ballast. If it matters the bulbs are 17" long and are marked F15T8,

Thanks!
