7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bulb does not light up. | No power to the socket, bulb not screwed in properly, or bulb is faulty. | Check power supply and circuit breaker. Ensure bulb is securely screwed in. Test with another known working bulb if available. |
| Bulb flickers or buzzes. | Incompatibility with older dimming systems or faulty dimmer switch. | Ensure your dimming system is compatible with LED bulbs. If flickering persists, try the bulb in a non-dimmable fixture to rule out dimmer issues. |
| Light is too dim or too bright. | Dimmer setting is incorrect or bulb is not suitable for desired brightness. | Adjust the dimmer switch. Confirm the bulb's lumen output (450lm) meets your lighting needs. |
