I'll have to try that. Unfortunately it's one of those lights that's connected through 100' of conduit, so I can't take it out to put in the oven, but I will try to bake it in the sun some more.

Would you think that if I've dried it out and the light is just dim with green and blue LED's showing, that the light is bad? Or is it possible it wasn't fully dry? I think I've eliminated everything else, but before I spend $900 on a new light, I figured I'd ask. :) Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately while the light is no longer tripping the breaker after drying out, it won't change colors and is very dim. I think it'll need to be replaced. :(

EDIT: Removed it from the niche and took it apart to see there's moisture in the light, so letting it dry out in the sun and following steps from this video and this post to see if I can get it working. Hi all.. I've had a GFCI continually trip and have figured out it's my pool light. I...

Did you check to see if there's anything obstructing the end of the tail where the water comes out? I had a similar problem with my 360 and it turned out to be a small stone in the tail partially blocking the flow. Popped the end off, pulled out the stone and it worked like new again. 5 minute fix.

That looks like you have the valve cutting off the main drain. Turn it 180 degrees from where it is and that should be a normal operating position. Also, make sure you don't still have winterizing plugs in your skimmer(s) as with the valve in it's current position, it should still be drawing...

You can help your ears out when you dive down to get rid of the painful pressure on them. It's a basic skill taught to scuba divers called the Valsalva Maneuver: http://divebetter.wordpress.com/2007/09 ... -maneuver/ Good luck with the drain.

Did you by chance screw down the knob by the half moon opening? Was that piece broken? You probably already know this, but the amount of water coming out of there is adjustable. Not enough pressure, close it down...too much open it up.

One quick note.. I can't quite remember if all three wheels are powered, but if they're not, you'll be able to tell which one (or two) is the drive wheel(s). That's the one you want to see if it stops easily. :) Oh, and make sure when you're doing your testing that the polaris isn't in...

Pull the Polaris out of the water when it's running and look up inside the suction inlet--you should see three really strong jets. Then as the wheels are turning, grab one of them and see if it's difficult to stop--if it stops very easy (like barely any pressure on the wheel), it's likely...

What's it doing? One thing that you need to do is ensure that the hose is cut to the proper length.. it should a foot or so longer than the farthest spot away from the pool (otherwise it'll tangle itself up). Take a look at the manual for the exact size it should be. May help with some of...

You should be able to use the existing connectors. They will screw right onto the new section of hose.

Re: What is the name of the tool used to attach the pool cov I've heard them called a bunch of different things: safety cover tool safety cover installation rod loop lock installation tool spring installation and removal tool Any of those will come up in searches. Here's a couple of...

I have a Circupool RJ45 and it's been great. Never had any problems with it and it keeps my chlorine levels right on target with 8 hours of runtime at 30%.

You're safe to swim up to shock levels.
