    New LED bulb worked briefly, then fixture stopped working

    My pool is probably 30 years old (early 90's) and I'd guess the light fixtures are original. They were standard incandescent, and look like the fixtures I commonly see on You Tube videos. I have three lights - one in the spa and two in the pool. The pool lights had stopped working over the...

    Broken wire on pool light. What to do next?

    So my 120v light (likely original from 1995) was triggering the GFIC outlet. I pulled the light, changed the bulb and still triggered. I then changed the gasket, same. I then pulled the bulb, let everything sit for an hour to ensure dry, and turned on without a bulb. Still triggered. I then...

    Hayward Lpcus1110 Light question

    Hello. My light bracket broke on the light fixture. I plan on making two stainless steel plates plus an expanded Teflon ring on each side of the clear plastic ring. I am also going to make a 1-1/2” - 2” thick spacer to fit on the back of the stainless steel plate and install the light back in...

    Pool Light Problems

    OK...it has been the project from heck! After 22 years, the pool lights started tripping the GFCI. I read that you should first check/replace the GFCI since it is a quick/cheap/easy fix to start with. Well, that was not the problem. So I ordered new LED bulbs (converting from old halogen), new...

    Pentair Aqualight halogen

    Hi. My spa light went out and I attempted to replace the T4 100W 120V halogen bulb. Not hard to do , except that the ceramic (?) base that the T4's prongs insert into has completed disintegrated. Any thoughts on what my options are? Has anyone ever done a in-enclosure repair? I am hesitant to. A...

    Replacing pool light, LED vs incandescent.

    We bought a house with a pool two years ago. The pool light (Hayward Colorlogic 4.0 model Sp0525SLED50, 120V) did not work when we bought it. I have been skimming the forums and it seems that older discussions had a lot of problems with LED lights, especially Hayward. On Inyo it looks like...

    Need a replacement for pool light housing

    The housing for my pool light leaks and is not repairable. It's an old style that just clips in on the top instead of with a bolt. I can't find a direct replacement. Does anyone know where to find one or have an idea what I can replace it with?

    Hayward Pool Light Replacement Help

    We have a 10x30 in-ground play pool (Pebble Tec) that is about 5 years old. Located in Phoenix, AZ. Last summer our pool light (Hayward Universal ColorLogic LED 12V) stopped working and after we pulled it out of the niche, noticed the lens was 1/3 full of water inside. We managed to shake enough...

    Unsure how to remove return jets & lights

    Hi there! I recently purchased a home and am a first-time pool owner. It's a saltwater pool, in-ground, and fiberglass. Now that I'm acquainted with the pool, I noticed that it feels like the bottom "sways" or "vibrates" when I walk on it (almost like there is water underneath/it's bubbling) so...

    Can’t find a juntion box for my two lights

    Both my lights went out so I assumed the bulbs had burned out and the breaker had flipped. When I took out the first light I noticed it was about half filled with water, the glass gasket was toast, and there was a tar like black substance and what looked to be caulk or something. Okay, time to...

    Pool Light niche is cockeyed!

    My pool, built in 2006, has 4 Jandy color-changing 120V halogen lights: two big ones and two little ones (one in the spa). We didn't notice this until a few years ago, but the two large lights are in niches that were installed cockeyed when the pool was built, so the screw receivers are at...

    Hayward ColorLogic LED Light Not Turning On

    Hi all, I have a Hayward ColorLogic 12v LED light in my pool that has stopped turning on. It was blinking a few days ago and now it just won't turn on. I have two other lights (originating from the same circuit) and they are working fine. I checked the GFCI and the circuit, and neither are...

    Screw for light

    The light on the side of our inground, vinyl-liner pool came out of the wall recently. See photos below. The screw was still in the hole at the top of the light. However, when I try to reattach it, the screw doesn’t catch in the hole in the wall. I took the screw out of the light and tried...

    Please Identify Light Housing

    Can any of you identify this light housing? I need to replace the bulb and gasket. The bulb is a 12V. The only number I could find on the housing is 15916. Google did not show anything for this number. All the other stickers have faded.

    I have been mostly lurking on this site and it has been an amazing boon to someone who knew nothing about pools/maintenance just a few years ago.

    Help replacing Hayward LED pool lights?

    Hi my pool is about 5 years old. When it was built, the installer put in low-voltage Hayward LED pool lights. They started flickering about two years ago and stopped working completely about a year ago and I'm having trouble figuring out how to replace them. The lights say they are Hayward model...
