7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not illuminate | No power supply; Loose or corroded wiring; Faulty unit | Check power source and vehicle fuse; Inspect and secure all wiring connections; Replace the unit if faulty |
| Light flickers or is dim | Insufficient power; Poor ground connection; Loose wiring | Verify voltage supply; Ensure ground connection is clean and secure; Check and tighten all wiring |
| Hyper-flashing (flashing too fast) | LED lights draw less current than incandescent bulbs, causing the vehicle's flasher relay to interpret it as a burnt-out bulb. | Install a load resistor or an LED-compatible flasher relay (sold separately) |
