3. Carefully unpack the new LED tail lights and inspect them for any damage.

2. Align the new LED tail light with the mounting points and alignment pins on the vehicle.
3. Push the tail light firmly into place until it sits flush with the vehicle body.
4. Reinstall the mounting screws or bolts to secure the new tail light. Do not overtighten.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MAYELLO LED Tail Lights, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

5.1 Lights Not Functioning

• Check Connections: Ensure all electrical connectors are securely plugged in. A loose connection can prevent the lights from working.
• Vehicle Compatibility: Double-check that your vehicle is compatible with these tail lights (factory halogen trims only). Incompatible systems may cause issues.
• Fuse Check: Verify the vehicle's relevant fuses are intact. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for fuse box locations and diagrams.

5.2 Hyper Flashing or Rapid Blinking

• This typically indicates that the vehicle's system detects a lower power draw from the LED lights compared to original halogen bulbs.
• The integrated resistor pack in these lights is designed to prevent hyper flashing. If it occurs, ensure the resistor pack is properly connected and not damaged.
• Contact customer support if the issue persists after checking connections.

5.3 Moisture or Fogging Inside the Lens

• Minor condensation can sometimes occur due to temperature changes. This usually dissipates on its own.
• If significant moisture or water accumulation is present, inspect the seal around the light housing for any gaps or damage.
• Ensure the tail light is properly seated and secured to the vehicle, as improper installation can compromise the seal.

5.4 Loose Fit or Gaps After Installation

• Ensure the tail light is fully seated and all mounting points are correctly aligned.
• Verify that no debris or obstructions are preventing the light from sitting flush against the vehicle body.
• If a gap persists, re-check the alignment pins and mounting tabs for proper engagement.
