Troubleshooting Led Christmas Light Strings

It can sometimes prove difficult to slide open the access door on a plug.

Troubleshooting led christmas light strings.

To replace the fuse you must slide the access door open pop out the tiny fuse and replace with a new one. Fixing any broken circuit involves locating the break then repairing it. The fuse is most often located behind an access door on the strand s plug. Look for the lights that have a splash of red on the bulb near the bottom.

If half the string is out look for the dead bulb closet to the end. These lights are key. Each string has a control to change the color sequence which works normally. The next string which is plugged in after the problem string works normal.

Two terminal wires should be visible. A faulty shunt may sound like a catastrophic failure but you can often fix it with the lightkeeper pro. I have a string of led christmas lights with a problem about 1 2 of the lights are on but very dim the other second half is on normal. Led strings can fail when led leads corrode or wires break or fuses blow.

Simply plug in the light strand and remove a bulb that s in or near the dark section. If not you may have found your culpret. Plug the string of christmas lights into the wall socket. If the entire string is out start with a bulb at the end of the string.

I fixed mine by taking a copper wire about 1 5 cm 5 8 long and inserting it into the hole alongside the broken terminal wire.
