Troubleshooting

• Bulb does not light up:
  Ensure the power switch is on and the bulb is securely screwed into the socket. Check if the circuit breaker has tripped. Test the bulb in another working fixture if possible.
• Flickering or buzzing:
  This often indicates incompatibility with the dimmer switch. Ensure you are using an LED-compatible dimmer. Some older dimmer switches may not work correctly with LED technology.
• Inconsistent dimming:
  Similar to flickering, this can be due to an incompatible dimmer switch. Replace the dimmer with one specifically designed for LED bulbs.
• Reduced brightness:
  If the bulb is dimmable, check the dimmer setting. Ensure the bulb is not in an enclosed fixture that could cause overheating and premature degradation.
