<p>Does either the switch or the socket look rusty, corroded, or dirty? My guess would be on the switch, and it's a fairly simple repair. Replacement part isn't more than a couple bucks at a hardware store. Sockets rarely go bad.</p>

<p>It will show where abouts there is no connection.</p>
<p>I think that the issue could be with the switch or the connection to the bulb holder if thies are ok then the whole cable will need replacing.</p> There's no fuse in the 32s, o…tag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2013-01-01:1566398:Comment:4289702013-01-01T22:29:25.562ZWile E.

There's no fuse in the 32s, or any lava base that I've ever seen... Could be a break in the wire, or the whole socket could need replacing. Probably something wrong in the cord though. I had to replace the wiring on my colossus when it suddenly died once.

<p>i tried the bulb in another lamp and it worked. i also tried a good bulb in the questionable base and it failed.</p>

<p>Do you know if the bulb works and is in correctly if that is ok then it could be the fuse in the plug that needs to be checked or just replaced.</p>
<p>How long have you had the lamp and did you buy it new or not. </p>
