I am having trouble getting the lights on the mast to work. The deck light (shines on the deck in front of the mast) works, but the mast head light and the anchor light do not work. I have changed bulbs, and the conection at the foot of the mast. The boat is 10 years old. Any sugestions?

Scott;
Corosion is a great insulator. Be sure that the bulb contacts are not coroded Light corrosion can often be eliminated with a pencil erasor. You might also check the pins on the mast plug for corrosion. After I cleaned up the contacts on my bulbs and got them working I applied some silicon grease to the bulbs and contacts. So far they seem to continue working.
