Don’t throw away your burnt-out LED bulb, an experienced electrician shows you how to repair it | April 9, 2025

Think a burned-out LED bulb is destined for the trash? Think again! Behind this small object lies a hidden repair potential. The lighting industry encourages you to buy new, but there’s a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative. Here’s how to bring your bulb back to life and avoid unnecessary waste.

Why do your LED bulbs burn out so quickly?

LED bulbs are supposed to last thousands of hours, but some burn out prematurely due to several factors:

• Electrical surges
• Defective components
• Poor heat dissipation

Fortunately, in many cases, repair is possible without much electrical knowledge.

Check the condition of your bulb before throwing it away

Before attempting any repair, take a few precautions:

• Unplug the bulb before opening it to avoid the risk of electrocution.
• Examine it for burn marks or damaged components.
• Test the circuit with a multimeter to identify the fault.

If the problem is a loose connection or a loose wire, the repair will be quick and easy.
