   You are right.  The first resistor is in series and the other I would call in   
   parallel I think? Second resistor runs from hot to neutral "bridging" them.    
   Sadly my diagram when saved on web got screwed. If you copy and paste into   
   notepad it may show up    
   more clearly.  However your conclusion may be right. IF this light used to   
   have 240 running an element in a stove through it then maybe removing one   
   resistor will give it enough to start the lamp.   
      
   I will try and get rid of second Resistor and get back with results.   
   Thanks.
