Danny, How did you do this test? "old wires" from a battery to the light, so not using the wires in the mast? If so, then since the light is also dim now, my guess would be that the old wires were fine and the problem is in the light itself. Maybe in the socket or in the connections of the wires to the terminals on the socket? Possibly a bad bulb? (is it an LED?). If you did go 20' up the mast, could you check the voltage on the wires connected to the socket? If that is anything close to 12 volts, then the problem is in the lamp or the socket or the connection of the wires to the socket. Not in the mast wiring.
