5. Installation Instructions
This license plate lamp is a replacement version compatible with original lamp sockets of mainstream vehicle models. It provides soft brightness and no glare, accurately illuminating the license plate area. The lamp body is resistant to high temperatures and driving vibrations, and is sealed and waterproof to adapt to outdoor working conditions.
- Prepare for Installation: Before installation, turn off the vehicle power and remove the vehicle key to ensure that the license plate light circuit is completely disconnected to prevent short circuits.
- Remove Old Light: Pry open the rear license plate headlight cover. Pinch the base of the original car bulb and rotate it counterclockwise, or directly remove the original car bulb.
- Install New Light: Hand-hold the lamp base (do not touch the light-emitting surface). Align the product with the lamp socket interface and rotate/insert it clockwise to ensure good electrode contact.
- Wiring: Connect the red wire to the positive (+) terminal and the black wire to the negative (-) pole of your vehicle's electrical system.
- Test Functionality: Turn on the vehicle's width indicator/license plate light switch. Test the lighting function to confirm there are no faults.
- Finalize Installation: Retract the cover to complete the installation.

7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Do not touch the illuminated surface during installation or replacement, as fingerprints and oil stains can affect transparency. After touching, use a dust-free cloth to wipe it clean.
- Inspection: Regularly check the fixing and sealing of the lamp body on a daily basis to prevent water from seeping into the rear of the vehicle.
- Disassembly: Non-professionals are prohibited from disassembling or modifying the internal circuit of the lamp body.
8. Troubleshooting
- Light Malfunction: If there is a light malfunction, it should be immediately stopped from use. Check the wiring connections for proper polarity (red to positive, black to negative) and ensure they are secure.
- No Illumination: Verify that the vehicle's power is on and the corresponding light switch is activated. Check for blown fuses in the vehicle's electrical system.
- Flickering/Errors: The built-in CanBus decoding module is designed to prevent flickering and error messages. If these issues occur, ensure the light is correctly installed and compatible with your vehicle's system.
9. User Tips
