Q: Why would a motion detector light need to be reset?

• <div><p>A motion detector light may need to be reset due to a number of technical issues. These can include faulty or misadjusted sensors and burned-out bulbs. You may also need to reset a motion sensor after an electrical surge or a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/help-i-have-power-outage.htm">power outage</a>, as these can change a light&rsquo;s settings and cause it to function differently.</p></div>

Q: Can you replace a pool light underwater?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s fair to be concerned about handling pool lights or wiring in a pool filled with water. But fortunately, pool lights and swimming pools are designed to make it easy and safe to replace the lights without needing to drain the water. Instead, you can turn off the electricity to the pool as a safety precaution, unscrew the pool fixture, pull it up and out to the side of the pool, then change the bulb.</p></div>

Q: What type of professional repairs lamps?

• <div><p>In most cases, general electricians and lamp repair specialists can repair lamps, although it&rsquo;s usually best to hire a lamp repair specialist. Many electricians won&rsquo;t offer lamp repair services, as the jobs are usually small, and some lamps require dedicated lamp repair expertise that electricians may not have. A dedicated lamp repair technician is also a better option because they will be familiar with different types of fixtures, including antique lamps, and can provide a more dedicated service.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell which Christmas light is burned without a tester?

• <div><p>If you need to visually inspect your Christmas lights to determine which are good and which need replacement, there are a few things to look for.

Also, look for missing filaments, cracked bulb glass, and broken sockets.</p></div>
