Thank you so much., with your easy to follow advice I have managed to fix my lights.

you didn't say anything about a resistor like others have talked about. Is the resistor closer to the plug so you didn't have to worry about it?? I need a 20 light strand with 6" spacing and NO ONE seems to sell them anymore. They keep trying to shove 4" spacing down my throat. You need what you NEED> so I thot hmmm maybe I can cut something in 1/2 or get a 20 from a 50 with the 6" spacing. Would it also be possible to put a new plug on the part you cut off so now you have 2 seperately working strands from 1 strand of 50 lights?
The string of incandescents I purchased for $3 at Home Depot were different, but I decided to try, and I was successful.
Glad to hear it!
Then it stopped working....
Probably burned out because of the increased voltage. @@thecuss6817
My Christmas tree has almost 3000 mini led lights attached in 3 separate sections. The largest bottom branches did not light when I plugged all sections together. I called the manufacturer and they sent me only replacement lights. I was hoping they would replace the bottom section. I searched every branch until I found one light bulb damaged with the wires severed. I'm not interested in saving the light but want to know how I can join the severed wires together to make all the lights work. There are 3 wires at the break in the strand. I'm trying to avoid removing the lights and putting new ones on. I really don't want to just add new lights over the original lights. Can you help?
Amazing video. ❤
Thank you!
Good video!
Thank you!
Hello, I just accidently had the LED lights get cut in half (on a fence we never use the gate and wife opened the gate, cutting the wire). ANyway, tried your method of 3 wire section. However, I am positive that I have the wire that does not go into any bulb and I put a leak proof wire nut , but the other two wires, both go through each bulb casing (2 in and 2 out). What do I do now? Tried turning the lights on, but nothing. I was guessing to use three wire nuts , 1 on each wire. Your thoughts?
take the single wire and connect with the bulb wire and take the wire you connected with the bulb and terminate it singly.
Had to change the wire (one of two) going in and out of the bulb base. First nothing. Changed the other double wire and it worked. Thank you so much. It was a brand new string of 500 feet, lost about 150,ft, but I am okay with it. On the front of the house is all I really wanted. Thank you and Happy Holidays.
