Hi all. I found a leak in my in-ground pool light (pentair). I lowered the water under the light and the issue is there is a broken or loosen connection between the niche and the conduit. I am looking for the best solution in this case. If there is procedure to replace this connection or the best way to patch it with some product. I tried to pack around the connection some Butyl Seal Tape, but its not bonding with the niche. I will appreciate any suggestions.

We had a similar issue on a new pool, and the leak company the PB sent used underwater pool epoxy and it seems to be working great. I believe it’s also called Pool Putty. I’m unsure of the exact brand they used, but if you search for pool/underwater epoxy the stuff that comes in tubes looks like what they used. They did this repair with the pool filled.
