How do you replace a pool light fixture?

How do you replace the light fixture on an in ground swimming pool that doesnt have enough cord to bring it out of the pool?

• Answer:

  The whole fixture should be replaced and the new one installed properly. There should be enough cord wrapped around the light in the niche to bring it up to the pool deck. You could drain the pool down, but I don't recommend it. When I see this condition, I don't take chances, I replace the whole light, cord, etc. Its not something to fool around with if you don't know what your doing. A: Call a qualified swimming pool electrician. He will bring the pool light and all related items to the light fixture up to code. This is not a job for an ammature.
