These lights use state-of-the-art Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology.  This light is 
comprised of ultra-bright LEDs that are operated in a multiplexed mode to efficiently 
produce light output with lifetimes up to 100,000 hours.  Under normal circumstances, you 
will not need to replace any LEDs in this light.  If any of the LEDs in your light do fail, 
please contact Star Headlight for arrangements to have them repaired. 

     NOTE: 

Most  failures  can  be  traced  to  wiring  and  battery 
problems.    Check  "quick-connects”  and  wiring  to  insure 
that correct voltage/polarity is reaching the light. 

Symptom

 

Possible Cause

 

Check

 

No Light

 

Power or polarity

 

A n10-16VDC (DLX3) or 10-30VDC (DLX4 and DLX6)  

should be reaching the red wire

 

Is power hooked up backwards?

 

Positive ground vehicle? (Unit designed for negative ground 

vehicles)

 

Inline fuse blown

 

Is an external fuse or circuit breaker used?

 

Bad ground

 

Are the negative leads connected to a good ground?

 

White wire shorted

 

White wire should only be connected to other white wires.

 

Power applied to it will prevent the light from flashing

 

Green wire shorted

 

Green wire should remain unconnected.

 

If grounded, light will cease to function.

 

Shorts

 

Do wires run thru bare metal holes that have damaged them?

 

Wiring

 

Are the wires pinched or broken anywhere?

 

LED's appear dim

 

Low battery voltage

 

Measure while lights are on.  Voltage below 10V will result in 

reduced LED output.

 

Power wires are too 

small/long

 

Measure while lights are on.  Voltage below 10V will result in 

reduced LED output.

 

Erratic operation

 

Bad routing of wires

 

Do wires run thru bare metal holes that have damaged them?

 

 

 

Are the power or control wires close to:

 

 

 

Strobe power supplies, tubes, cables, police/two-way radios or 

alternator?

 

 

 

Try running with the car and all other accessories off
