Like I heard on the radio today- try what Noah used on the Ark... FLOOD lights !Are you referring to a mounted flood light?
Tried that ...still will not go on ...so I am thinking as mentioned above it is tied into the Steaming ligt switch on the panel for power but branches off to a switch then toh the deck light.. and to follow the wires ...well I would have to tear apart the well maintained cabin ..and I can invision what the would look like ...lolMine was wired to the steaming light. Dumb. Maybe yours is the same - a P.O. wanted deck lighting but had no other way. I had to replace the 2 wire cable with 3 and add another switch.
lol well lAnother thought:
The fixture itself may be blown. So, no matter what switch its wired to, you'll never get it to work.
Since mine need replacing anyway, come down to Florida
and I'll show you how it's done while I hoist you up the mast.
Fixed send email address for proof photo!! LolWell I would usually go with Van Winkle Special,Reserve, lot B 12 years.., But since I will have it done tomorrow by 12 ...I'll settle for a Macallan 15 YR, Triple Casket , Single Malt ..... lol
