1. My light has NO function. Potential issues:
• Insufficient Power Supply
• Programming Issue (Wireless Remotes Only)
• Defective batteries or Defective Wireless Remote
• Defective Receiver
Insufficient Power Supply- Verify your light is receiving adequate current. Halogen units draw 5.5 Amps at
13.8V / LED units draw 3.7 Amps at 13.8V.
Programming Issue- See “Wireless Remote Programming” instructions listed under “Helpful Links” on the
Product Support page or refer to the white sticker on the back of your wireless remote control.
Defective Batteries or Defective Wireless Remote- There is a red LED light in the center of your wireless remote
control that should light up every time you depress a button. If there is no red LED light, start by replacing the
batteries in your remote control (12V 23AE). If this does not resolve the issue, the problem could be with the
remote control. If available, use a different remote control to test the light. If a different remote is not available,
please call our Customer Service Department for assistance.
Defective Receiver- If you have done all of the above and your light still has no function; you may have a
defective receiver. Please call our Customer Service Department for further instructions.
2. My light will rotate left/right and up/down, but the bulb will not illuminate. Potential issues:
• Insufficient Power Supply
• Polarity Reversed
• Defective Halogen Bulb
• Defective Receiver
Insufficient Power Supply- If the motors are operational, this is a sign that the unit is receiving adequate current,
but not enough current to illuminate the bulb. Verify your unit is receiving adequate current. Halogen units draw
5.5 Amps at 13.8V / LED units draw 3.7 Amps at 13.8V.
Polarity Reversed- Our LED units are polarity sensitive (Halogens are not). If your light will rotate, but not turn
on, verify your power wires are hooked up accordingly (+) to (+).
Defective Halogen Bulb- Is there a break in the filament? If no, remove the bulb and perform a continuity test.
Defective Receiver- When pressing the power button on the remote control, do you hear a “clicking” sound? If so,
this means the receiver and the remote control are communicating, and the issue is most likely the bulb. (Please
note: in rare circumstances, a defective receiver can still produce a clicking sound.) If you do not hear anything
when you press the power button, the issue could be the receiver.
