  3. Connect the LED Strip to the Control Box: Connect the 4-pin connector of your RGB LED strip light to the output port of the rectifier control box. Ensure that the arrow marks on both the control box connector and the LED strip connector are aligned. Misalignment will prevent the lights from functioning correctly.

  3. Wrong or not connected
  1. Check the switching power supply
  2. Corrected after inspection
  3. Check the car wiring and connect it
The color is wrongRGB line connection errorRecheck and connect the RGB lines
Some mode does not changeSpeed is not adjustedPress the speed button to speed up
Uneven LED brightness before and after
  1. The output line is too long to have a voltage drop
  2. The wire diameter is too thin to have a pressure drop
  3. Power load overload
  1. Shorten the circuit or ring power supply
  2. Calculate the current, change the thick wire
  3. Power supply with high power
  4. Increase the power expander

Tips: The effective power of the switching power supply is only 80% of the power supply mark, so the user should select the power supply power more than the LED light load power, at least 20% more.
