How To Repair A Pull Chain Light Fixture | How To Change A Broken Pull Cord Lamp Fixture

Jeff shows you the easy way of how to change an old broken porcelain pull chain light fixture on a ceiling light and replace it with a new pull chain fixture. After many years of use our basement pullstring light stopped working creating quite a problem not allowing us to turn on the light. Jeff does a quick fix and simple repair on a pull string lamp socket fixture and shows the tools used and step-by-step info on how to easily replace it with a new working lamp fixture with an outlet and reconnecting the white and black wires to the fixture terminal connection screws. Using a pullchain fixture is a great alternative to a light fixture controlled by a wall switch where the chain is located right under the light bulb. These are most commonly found in basements, closets, crawlspaces and storage areas. If you have a pull cord light fixture that has failed, then you’ll want to watch this video.

Thanks so much for watching! Was this video helpful? Are you working on any home maintenance projects?

Very nice video; excellent lighting, thorough and clear instructions, close up shots and good pace- no wobbly camera, background noise or skipped steps. Good quality video. Thank you.

One thing you may want to do when switching a breaker off is to put a piece of tape over it. It's just a safety precaution so someone doesn't flip the breaker back on while you're working on it.

Thanks for taking the scare factor away! I did it myself!

[undeniablepastry]

Great video, straight to the point without any filler to lengthen the video.
I still had to find the switch that turns off power to my hallway which was a bother in my part. But nonetheless, a job well done

[claudia]

OMG that was useful. I think you saved me some big buck. Thank you, Tinker!

[SochiT]

Thank you !! my string broke on my light chain and I could not get it out, your video was so helpful.

[amyl]

Great video! Made it so easy to replace my light myself!! Thank you!

[jayloo]

Do I need to replace the entire "casing" for the light or can I just change the chain? Thanks!

[ejicon]

Is it possible just to fix the pull mechanism? What exactly is the cause for the pull action to stop working?

[aaronbuckman]

Very helpful video. You make it look easy. Was able to change mine out fairly quickly. Cheapest fixture I’ll ever buy! Only 4 bucks at Home Depot

[kellimedaglia]

Thank you for keeping it simple. Very informative.

Thanks. Good video, took me less than 10 minutes. Much appreciation.

[tydoyzl]

Brand new fixture, already malfunctioning. Replaced one from the early 70s, which worked for 50 years. New one lasted a few weeks! Insane!!
