Hello,
I hope this is the correct place to post this and while I have searched and spent a lot of time on your forum, I can't seem to figure this out. We just bought a house with our first pool and the light was out so I pulled it out to put a new gasket and bulb in, only to find the wax coating around the bulb has become a greasy mess so I bought a new assembly. It's a 12 volt and I planned to fish the wire through (since our pool guy is now on 3 weeks of not showing up to do this) but the wiring is less than ideal. I assumed it went to a deck box, as I found found on here but after pulling out all the wires, it appears it goes directly to the transformer, can that be? I need to pull the breaker box and pump timer down to remove the cover on the side of the transformer conduit and give the wires a better tug but it appears to be; is this incorrect?
Quick sketch
Actual mess:
