How to Remove LED Light in Living Room ?

[bykerhd]

One of six round lights in 2020 31UL living room ceiling.
No idea how to safely remove/lower it.
Reason is that there is water dripping out of or around it.

Not sure where it came from but I want it out & to find the source.
We had a wind driven brief monsoon ? a couple days back at our campsite which is where I think the water came from.

I'm going to guess/hope we have the same 4 1/2" round LED fixtures. If so - the clear round part unscrews about 1/4 of a turn. Then pops off.


Underneath mine is the light housing itself. Three #2 Robertson (Square Drive) screws hold my fixtures to the ceiling. Unscrew and the housing drops down. So far, (I've had to replace all most all of mine), so far - there's plenty of wire to pull the fixture away from the ceiling.

We definitely have the same fixtures.
I unscrewed the lense and dumped the water.

No square drive bit on hand but I will deal with that tomorrow.
Thanks !

Almost every screw in the RV is going to be Robertson. Might as well grab a few #2 Square drive bits and screwdrivers.


I switched to square drive screws in my woodworking about 20 years ago, so I had the bits.

The least of your worries is removing the light. Your air conditioner is probably not tightened down and your ceiling has water in it. Ask me how I know. It cost Jayco $4500 for an independent RV to do the repair on my bedroom ceiling.
