Sorry for being so snarky. Other things going on with me besides a bad light.
Also, Pentair has about 20 part numbers for the Amerlite. I don't want to order the wrong thing. Only thing I'm sure of is that I won't need a 100' cable! The junction box is about 20 feet from the pool.

The different P/Ns are for different bulbs in the same light fixture. Various wattages at 120V or 12 volts.
You need to open up the light fixture and see what bulb is in there.
I think at the end of the day you will find the fixture is not repairable and you need to replace it.
Yep. Already cut it off. It was a 500 watt fixture, but I'm going to go with an LED bulb, so I'm guessing the cheapest 120 volt fixture with a 50 foot cable is the way to go.

Quick update: I had to drain the pool anyway, so I replaced the fixture with a Hayward 500 watt model (also replaced the 8 gauge ground wire. Had to dig out a 6 inch plug of silicone from the conduit). Replaced the 500 watt bulb with a $57 LED color changing bulb from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W8MBNQ4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it works great!
Be aware that if you had to remove a silicone plug from the light conduit, it may have a leak. That is not a usual installation procedure.
