Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the LED driver is correctly connected to the mains power supply and that the fly leads are securely attached. Ensure the power source is active. If issues persist, verify the driver's functionality or consult an electrician.

Flickering light

This could indicate a loose connection at the driver or the mains supply. Re-secure all connections. If the problem continues, the LED driver may need replacement.

Inconsistent brightness between lights

Ensure all drivers are correctly installed and receiving the same voltage. Check for any obstructions around the light heads. If a specific light is dimmer, it might be nearing the end of its lifespan or be faulty.
