3. Setup and Installation

These LED bulbs are designed for plug-and-play installation. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Prepare Vehicle: Before installation, turn off the vehicle power and remove the key from the ignition to prevent electrical short circuits.
2. Locate Original Bulb: Identify the original T10 bulb position (e.g., daytime running lights, license plate lights, reading lights, dome lights).
3. Remove Original Bulb: Gently pinch the socket and twist/pull out the original bulb.
4. Insert LED Bulb: Align the positive and negative terminals of the LED bulb with the socket and insert it fully. Gently shake the bulb to confirm secure seating.
5. Test Functionality: Turn on the vehicle power to test if the LED bulb illuminates normally.
6. Troubleshooting (if needed): If the light fails to illuminate, remove the bulb, reverse its polarity (swap positive/negative orientation), reinsert it, and then secure by replacing the socket cover.

5. Maintenance

These LED bulbs are designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal lifespan and performance:

• Cleaning: Keep the bulb surface clean. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away any dust or debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Handling: When handling the bulbs, especially during installation or replacement, avoid touching the LED chips with bare hands or sharp objects to prevent damage.
• Disassembly: Do not attempt to disassemble the bulb. Disassembly will void the warranty and may damage the product.
• Operating Temperature: The bulbs are designed to operate between -40°C and +80°C. Ensure proper ventilation around the bulb area if possible, though the bulbs feature an increased surface heat dissipation design.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your LED bulbs, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Bulb Does Not Light Up:
  • Ensure the vehicle power is on.
  • Remove the bulb and reverse its polarity (flip it 180 degrees) then reinsert it. LED bulbs are polarity sensitive.
  • Check for secure socket contact. Ensure the bulb is fully seated in the socket.
  • Verify that your vehicle's electrical system is functioning properly (e.g., check fuses for the specific light circuit).
• Bulb Flickers or Turns Off Intermittently:
  • Check for secure socket contact. A loose connection can cause flickering.
  • Verify the vehicle's electrical system is stable and providing consistent 12V power.
