Navigation Light Bulb
 

Tried to ask this on the technical forum and got no answer. Here goes: How do you change the bow navigation light bulb on a Fountain. It is a Perko light but I can't figure out how to get to the bulb. If I remove the screws, the light is sealed from underneath where the wires come in and I can't get to the bulb. I can't figure it out and don't want to break the whole thing. If I call Fountain I get the usual Audix answering system for Tony Vic.

should just take the side screws out and lift up then take the screws out of the bottom and the top will come off .. unless you have the type that is on port and star of the bow tip then you have to go in from under the birth mirror (on older fountains early 90s)

It doesn't pull up far enough to get to the screws underneath. Is it possible that Fountain made it so the bulb can't be replaced without breaking the sealed wire connection? That doesn't seem right.

Finally decided to remove the connections and the entire light assembly after no response from Perko or Fountain. You were right, there are two little phillips stainless screws that hold the assembly together. The problem is that Fountain forgot to leave enough wire to lift the assembly without removing the sealant from the deck mounting and cutting the power connections. Seems like an ordeal to change a light bulb. I was beginning to think Fountains are made by a bunch of illiterate hillbillies in North Carolina, but I know that isn't true because I checked their
website. I see "must be able to read and write" under job requirements for several of the positions listed.

Thanks! I wondered about this myself.

glad to help!
