Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power to the fixture, loose wiring, faulty bulb, tripped circuit breaker. | Check circuit breaker. Ensure all wiring connections are secure. Replace bulb. |
| Shade appears yellow when lit. | Bulb color temperature, shade material interaction. | Consider using bulbs with a cooler color temperature (e.g., 2700K-3000K for warm white, or higher for neutral white) if a less yellow appearance is desired. |
| Diffuser becomes dislodged. | Improper seating, vibration. | Ensure the diffuser is correctly seated on its tabs. If necessary, apply a small amount of adhesive (e.g., hot glue or double-sided tape) to the tabs to secure it, ensuring it can still be removed for bulb changes. |
| Fixture is unstable or wobbles. | Loose mounting hardware. | Ensure the mounting bracket and fixture body are securely fastened to the junction box and each other. |
