6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Nilight Bed Light Strips, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Regular Cleaning: Periodically clean the surface of the LED strips with a soft, damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt, dust, or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Inspect Connections: Regularly check all electrical connections for tightness and signs of corrosion. Ensure the fuse holder is secure and the fuse is intact.
  • Check for Damage: Inspect the light strips for any physical damage, such as cuts, cracks, or loose components. Although designed to be durable and flexible, extreme conditions can cause wear.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Nilight Bed Light Strips, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

  • Lights Not Turning On:
    • Check the power connection to ensure it is securely connected to a 12V DC source.
    • Verify that the ground connection is solid.
    • Inspect the 5A inline blade fuse. If it is blown, replace it with a new 5A fuse.
    • Ensure the on/off switch is in the 'On' position.
  • Lights Are Dim or Flickering:
    • Check for loose or corroded connections at the power source, switch, or splitter.
    • Ensure your vehicle's battery voltage is stable and sufficient (12V DC).
    • Inspect the wiring for any damage or pinches that might be causing resistance.
  • Only One Strip Working:
    • Check the connection of the non-working strip to the splitter cable.
    • Inspect the non-working strip itself for any visible damage.
