He added some needles and 8 bobbins.
    If he didn't tell you the light didn't work when you bought it, I would bring it back and insist he fix or replace the light.

    Maybe not, he might say "forget it, I'll just give your money back and keep the little beauty" bacause by now, he has figured out it's (her's) real worth......If hubby is at all electrically inclined, he can figure it out, and replace the light for ya.....
