Setup and Installation
Before installation, measure the inner diameter of your light base to ensure compatibility. This 4-inch retrofit kit is suitable for light bases with an inner diameter of 4.5 to 10 inches. The lamp base should ideally be made of metal for easy magnetic attachment; otherwise, screws may be required for secure installation.
Step-by-Step Installation:
- Power Off: Ensure the power to the ceiling fan is completely turned off at the circuit breaker before starting.
- Remove Old Light Fixture: Carefully remove the existing light bulb(s) and any old light panel or fixture from your ceiling fan.
- Prepare Wiring: Identify the AC120V wires from your ceiling fan's light kit. This LED panel connects directly to AC120V; no additional ballast is needed.
- Connect Wires: Use the provided wire connector to securely connect the wires from the LED panel to the corresponding wires from your ceiling fan's light kit. Ensure a tight and safe connection.
- Position LED Panel: The LED panel features integrated magnets for easy attachment to a metal light base. Position the panel centrally within the light base, allowing the magnets to secure it. If your base is not metal, use appropriate screws (not included) to secure the panel.
- Install Plastic Cover: Place the plastic cover over the LED panel, ensuring it fits securely.
- Restore Power: Once installation is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the circuit breaker.
- Test Functionality: Turn on the light to confirm proper operation.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Ledytech Retrofit LED Light Kit, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:
