Also, I am surprised the post is chrome plated brass and not stainless. They that give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty or safety. --Benjamin Franklin

The socket may be corroded in place. I am not positive about the socket on this light but other similar lights the socket pulls out from the top of the housing. Carefully.....
