To change out a pool/spa light, you should advise a service professional.
1. Lights are ussually equiped with a breaker that trips within the light and also one at the equipment. However, it is best to turn off the main breaker at the equipment before taking the light out of the niche.
2. Unscrew the light from the niche using a screw driver. If the light is in a spa it is easier to drain the spa first. You may have to pry the light from the niche with a flat head.
3. Unwind the cord from around the light and place the light in a dry place so you can work on it.
4. Take off the lense so that the bulb is open.
5. Take out bulb. There is a spring loaded plate that sits against the bulb. Pry it back while you're taking the bulb out and putting the new bulb in. Then gently set the plate back onto the bulb.
6. Put the lense back on. Make sure there is a good seal around the lense.
7. Wrap the cord back around the light and put it back into the niche. This can sometimes be tricky. But it should fit in there just as it was before.
