how to change lights in Aquapod

[scubagirl12]

I was just about to change my lights in my Aquapod but I can't figure out how the old ones come out. Does anyone know? I don't want to pull too hard and break the lamps.

You must remove the screws holding the plastic protection cover on. Once the cover is removed, the bulbs just pop (slide) out and the bulb support you must release as well. All in all, it does not take but about 15 minutes...just be careful not to drop the screws into the water when putting back together!
:up:

i already removed the cover but my bulbs do not want to just pop or slide out. is there not a trick? grr they are stubborn

Try taking a thin flat tipped screwdriver and gently pry the bulb out by the base. The pins might have corrosion on them...maybe ...and it's making it more difficult? The bulb will slide, just don't overforce.
