PRODUCT DETAIL

FEATURES

Power Range: Compatible with a variety of vehicles, it operates within the DC 12V–24V power range.
High Lumen Output: With both bulbs installed, the overall lumen output is 3000, with each bulb emitting 1500 lumens.

Power Efficiency: Using only 30W of power, it offers great brightness without using too much power.

Long Lifespan: The bulbs require fewer replacements because of their remarkable 50,000+ hour lifespan.
Waterproof Rating: These bulbs are perfect for all weather circumstances because they have an IP68 waterproof rating, which completely protects them from dust and water.

Optimal Beam Performance: Visibility is improved by the COB-1908 chips’ production of a bright, clean light free of glare and shaded areas.

By using COB-1908 chips, COB technology ensures a more focused and effective light output for improved fog penetration.

Advanced Heat Dissipation: Constructed with an integrated heat sink and aeronautical aluminum housing, this device ensures effective heat dissipation and guards against overheating.
Non-Polarity Design: Without having to worry about polarity, the plug-and-play design makes installation simple.

CANBUS Compatibility: To avoid error codes, vehicles utilizing CANBUS systems may require a load resistor or error decoder.
Simple Replacement: No further wiring or adjustments are needed because this product is made to be a direct replacement for H3 halogen fog light bulbs.

Color of Xenon White Light: Generates 6000K Xenon White light, which is clear, bright, and sharp for improved road visibility.
Compact Size: The bulb’s 1.84″ length and 0.47″ width allow it to fit in tight areas without sacrificing functionality.

Use of Daytime Running Light (DRL): Not appropriate for high/low beam headlights, but only for fog lights and DRL.
Sturdy Construction: Long-term dependability is guaranteed by the lightweight and sturdy 1.44-ounce design, which doesn’t increase the vehicle’s weight.

SETUP GUIDE

Verify Compatibility: Before installing, make sure your car is compatible with H3 fog light bulbs and that the voltage range is between 12 and 24 volts DC.
Prepare the Vehicle: To prevent electrical shorts or accidents during installation, turn off your car and unplug the power.

Find the Fog Light Housing: Locate the fog light housing, which houses the halogen bulbs, by opening the car’s hood.
To remove the old H3 halogen bulb from the fog light socket, gently twist it counterclockwise.

The AUXLIGHT H3 LED Fog Light Bulb should be installed by inserting it into the fog light socket and twisting it clockwise until it is firmly in place.
Verify Polarity: If problems arise, make sure the lightbulb is positioned correctly in the socket. Non-polarity installation is made possible by the plug-and-play design.

Test the Bulb: To make sure the new LED bulbs are working properly, turn on your car.
Modify the Beam Angle: Make sure the fog light’s beam is correctly aligned and not producing glare by adjusting its position.

If necessary, install a load resistor or error decoder to get around the CANBUS problem if you encounter error codes.
Employ the Right Tools: To safely remove the old bulbs and install the new ones, use the right tools.
Secure the Wires: Make sure that all of the wiring is securely fastened and not at risk of pinching or overheating.
Verify that the AUXLIGHT H3 LED Bulb fits properly by making sure the socket holds it firmly in place.
Reassemble Housing: To avoid damaging the bulb or nearby parts, carefully close the fog light housing after installation.
Verify Operation: To make sure the new LED bulbs are functioning as intended, turn on your car’s fog lights or DRLs.
Verify Alignment: For best visibility and functionality, make sure the light is pointed appropriately.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Frequent Cleaning: To make sure the light output is unhindered, clean the AUXLIGHT H3 LED Fog Light Bulb’s surface as well as the fog light lens.
Check for Debris or Dirt: Occasionally check the lightbulb for any debris or dirt that might impair its functionality or harm the lens.
Check for Cracks: Verify that there are no damage or cracks in the housing. To avoid failure, think about changing the lightbulb if any are discovered.
Check Electrical Connections: To avoid flickering or failure, make sure the electrical connections on the lightbulb are tight.
Prevent Moisture Exposure: Despite the bulb’s IP68 waterproof rating, make sure the housing is free of condensation and moisture accumulation.
Wear Gloves During Installation: To prevent oils from your hands from getting on the bulb surface, wear gloves when installing or changing the bulb.
Keep an Eye Out for Overheating: Even though the bulb dissipates heat very well, make sure the fog light housing is always well-ventilated.
Test the Bulb Frequently: Make sure the bulb is operating at maximum brightness by periodically checking its operation.
Do Not Touch the LED Chips: Keep your hands away from the LED chips to prevent performance and longevity issues caused by skin oils.
Inspect for Flickering: To fix any CANBUS problems, inspect the wiring or think about adding a load resistor.

Check for Rust: If you reside in a location with a lot of humidity, make sure that no rust has accumulated around the connections.
Store in a Dry Location: To extend the life of the lightbulb, store it in a cool, dry location if you must remove it for storage.
Replacing worn-out bulbs is crucial when they begin to dim or malfunction, even if they are made to last for more than 50,000 hours.

Avoid High Power Loads: To avoid overheating or bulb damage, do not exceed the designated voltage range (DC 12V-24V).
Verify Compatibility: To avoid damage and guarantee correct functioning, make sure load resistors or error decoders are installed correctly while changing a lightbulb in a car with a CANBUS system.
