Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the light switch is in the 'on' position. Check that the bulb is correctly seated and functional. Verify that the circuit breaker for the relevant area has not tripped. If hardwired, confirm power supply to the fixture.

Flickering light

Check if the bulb is loose or nearing the end of its lifespan. Try replacing the bulb with a new, compatible one. If the issue persists, there may be a wiring problem that requires professional attention.
