I have the fluval marine and reef 2.0 48" LED and today while I was doing s water change, the light got very dim suddenly. I unplugged it and let it sit for a while and then plugged it back in and it was still just as dim. The cords are all implement dry and in tact and nothing seems to be wrong. All of the small LED lights are lit up, just not as brightly... Can I get some help?
 
double check the plugs male and female for salt. electronics cleaner or rubbing alcohol will clean it up ok. toothpick etc to get it. hopefully its not salt in the fixture. if you diy, take it apart do the same.
the salt we use is really crazy. dont know if youve ever left a bit of the mix out on a table or floor. itll pull water out of air or wood and wick across a rag.

Triple checked all wires and plugs and everything looks fine.. No clue what's wrong but it's really frustrating
