Our pool is brand new and only 2.5 years old. We have the standard 500W incandescent pool light in the deep end.
I went to turn it on last night for a swim and it came on briefly then just went off.
We rarely use the light, probably only has about 50-75 total hours of usage so far.
I checked all electrical issues and nothing wrong. GFI not tripped or tripping. Breaker is working just fine. I can hear the relay in the Hayward ProLogic box clicking on/off. There is voltage at the junction box. So it leaves me to think that the light has just burned out? But being rarely used is that reasonable?
I'm going to call our pool builder though and see what they can do to help us out. Whats the cost of a new bulb and gasket typically? It doesn't appear to hard to do myself and replace if its truly burned out.
