They may have some tips for how to do a comprehensive evaluation. They might even offer to send you a new unit in advance before you go up, with the agreement to send back the defective one to avoid being charged. Some manufacturers do that. They sell you a new one, and issue a full refund as soon as you send the old one back. On 6/29/2016 9:12 AM, Mark McMenamy via CnC-List wrote: I just reread your post and saw that it's 'built in'. Looks like a trip up the mast. Thanks.

That is true even of LED replacement lamps put in the original incandescent fixture. It sounds as if your regulator is defective. That the light is sometimes dim is the giveaway. The regulator is designed (when working properly) to make up for incoming voltage that is either lower or higher than required.

Three months ago I had an LED anchor light installed and my mast rewired. Things have been working perfectly but now my anchor light is working intermittently. At times it is dim, or flickers, or shuts off. I climbed down into the locker and worked all the wires and connections to see if I had a bad connection and replaced the fuse as well. It has the original electrical panel with the fuses. As all the wiring from the switch to the top of the mast is new, I was thinking the problem is at the panel. Before I tore it apart I thought I'd ask for and thoughts or opinions. Thanks a lot.
