6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your LED bulb, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bulb does not light up. | No power supply; loose connection; faulty bulb. | Check power switch and circuit breaker. Ensure bulb is screwed in tightly. Test bulb in another working fixture. |
| Bulb flickers or buzzes. | Incompatible dimmer; loose connection. | Ensure dimmer is compatible with LED bulbs. Tighten bulb in socket. If problem persists, try a non-dimmable fixture to rule out dimmer incompatibility. |
| Light output is too low. | Dimmer setting too low; incorrect bulb for desired brightness. | Adjust dimmer to maximum setting. Verify bulb's lumen output (470 lm) meets your requirements. |
