How do I replace a hot tub light bulb?

Our light bulb in the hot tub is not working suddenly. The bulb is likely burned out. Do I have to drain the hot tub to replace it or is it something accessible from within the frame of the hot tub?

Also, does this mean the bulb is burned out or is there something else wrong? I read online about checking different parts.

Open the access cover and look in the frame and you will see the back side of the light socket.(you will see two wires going to it) Usally the whole socket will twist out but sometimes they have a tab like a pill bottle that you have to press before twisting. Most brands have a 12volt bulb that you can find at any home improvement store.

    you can get at it from the panel that is removable. the lens is sealed even when you remove the light. i replace mine with led light because it last longer
