Anyone have any experience repairing the bowspotlights? Had my off and apartyesterday and can’t seem to find out why the rotational part of the light willnot turn with the motor. I could clearlysee the main gear but could not find how the motor gear box is attached. Is this thing repairable?

Thanks in advance.

 
Can you post a pic of the inside? I fixed a jabsco one the other day and I wonder if it's similar.
 
My light worked but rotation was sporadic found I wire off the drive motor and soldered back on drive motor and works fine now.
 
A friend repaired his on a 2006 - 340 same problem. Can't remember the specifics. But it was repairable.

The wires are still on the motor and the motor still works, it just seem to be slipping on the gears.
