Answer

Hello Tana, The problem is not the bulb when it will not dim. The control sends different voltages to the bulb for different levels of light. The issue will be with the board so to give you the proper part number for the board for your unit, we will need you to please post a new question including the complete model number of the unit in your home. There will be a digit after the "Z" that is necessary to provide the correct board. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
