Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up
Ensure the bulb is correctly seated in the GU10 socket. Check that the fixture is receiving power and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Test with another known working bulb if possible.
Bulb flickers or buzzes when dimmed
This usually indicates incompatibility with the dimmer switch. Ensure your dimmer is rated for LED bulbs. Try adjusting the dimmer to its lowest setting or consult the dimmer manufacturer for compatible LED bulbs.
Bulb is not dimming smoothly
Verify that the dimmer switch is specifically designed for LED dimming and check for compatibility with this particular bulb. Some dimmers may have a minimum load requirement that this low-wattage bulb might not meet.
Bulb turns on and off intermittently
Check the connection of the bulb in the socket. Ensure the fixture is not overheating, which could trigger a thermal protection mechanism. Test the bulb in a different fixture if possible.
