Flush mount ceiling lights

We have two semi-flushing mount ceiling lights in our bedroom slide. They operate off of independent switches attached to the lights themselves. One light remains on with the switch in either position, on/off. Driving DW crazy at night as well as myself. Two questions: 1) How do you remove the outer cover to the light?, and, 2) any ideas on the cause other than a loose connection? This only started happening recently.

I've tried turning and prying the outer cover off but only to the point where I thought further pressure would damage the plastic.

Thoughts please.

Thanks in advance!

If yours are the same as ours, you need to use the palm of your hand to push up on the light cover and twist at the same time to remove the light cover. Many of mine had debris inside the cover and most were very hard to remove. I thought my hand was going to push through the roof on some of them.

Thanks for the guidance!.

While these lights are similar to the rest of ceiling lights they are not the same design. As suggested, I applied what seemed like an extreme amount of pressure to turn this lens and it did finally move. The 5 cent lever which moves the actual on/off switch had broken (no surprise). Super glued back together and all is well.

Thanks again - love the MOC!

Thank you for this question. I just sat down to find the answer to this very question. Any idea what bulbs are needed?

If we're talking about puck lights, they don't take bulbs, the led's are built into the base.

This might be the answer: https://www.trekwood.com/parts-searc...23+%2F+Keyword


On the above page, there is just a lens/cover: https://www.trekwood.com/products/13...CW-H-Lens-Only
