How to fix broken ceiling light clamp?

[AmberLee22]

Can I get replacement clamp for this light or do I need to replace the fixture

 

completely? If so, is it safe to do it myself? TIA

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @AmberLee22. It's brilliant to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about repairing a light fixture.

Was it one of the attachment clamps or the shade itself? Either way, replacing parts would be difficult unless you can identify the manufacturer and they have replacement parts available, as they'd likely be proprietary items. I am not aware of any generic clamps or shade replacements. If you can identify the manufacturer and it's one of our products, I'd happily contact them to check spare part availability.

If you do need to replace the fixture, you'd need to enlist the services of an electrician. The process involves working with 240V electricity, which is definitely not a D.I.Y. job due to the safety risks.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hey @AmberLee22. Did you managed to find the replacement clamp? I have the same problem with my ceiling light. I tried to search online with the model number, but nothing similar came up.

Hi @FirdausZR284, 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you join us.

Hopefully @AmberLee22 will respond shortly, but in the meantime, I'd be happy to assist in any way that I can.

If you're aware of the particular make and model of light fitting, I'd be happy to investigate spare parts for you.

Let me know if there's anything else I can assist with.

Hello @JacobZ . Thanks for your reply. 

The unit is from Cougar Lighting and the model number for this particular unit is HX62-2.

Would be much appreciated if you could find the clamp replacement for this unit.

Thanks.

Hi @FirdausZR284,

Unfortunately, as this is not a Bunnings product, I do not have access to information on spare parts.

My suggestion is to reach out to the manufacturer to see if there are replacement parts available.

If this does not prove helpful, you might like to look into our range of oyster lights as potential replacements that an electrician can install for you.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi @FirdausZR284 

I'm struggling to see the problem in your image - all three prongs appear to be intact? Are they spring loaded? What does the profile of the glass cover look like?

Just curious.
