In this short video I’ll show you how to resolve the issue of Christmas lights that no longer light up.
Most times the issue is a simple blown fuse and replacing it with the fuse included in the package will resolve the issue.
Save these fuses when you get new strands so that you can replace them as they burn out from year to year to extend the life of your Christmas lights.

Actually, you take the fuses out using a series of small screwdrivers like Stanley 1.4mm-2.4mm and pull them out using scissors by grasping the fuse and pulling out. However, putting new ones in is even harder because it's not enoygh to get them to sit inside but in the right spot to connect on both ends or they won't work. That's what I was expecting to see here.

Thank you. Worked perfectly. Only one fuse was burnt out. And on my light string, the fuses fell out when I turned over the opened plug. I see from comments that is not the case with every string. I have a pick from the dollar store. It's a cricket knock off just in case. It's in their crafting section if you want one. I have one for my junk drawer and find it invaluable.

Except most fuses just don’t drop in or go in right because the doors are off and the screwdriver won’t push it in. It’s the dumbest thing created

Why do people post videos of everything working out perfectly and then act like they're performing some great service to the rest of us? If our fuses worked like yours did we wouldn't even need to be searching for how-to videos. We need help getting the old fuses out and jamming the old fuses in when they won't fit.
@TheCraftsmanBlog
@TheCraftsmanBlog 9 месяцев назад
If you’re jamming the fuses in then they are likely the wrong size.

@ginakerry2588
@ginakerry2588 8 месяцев назад
The string I bought at walmart says that burnt out bulbs won't affect operation. I'm assuming that is correct . I'm thinking maybe mine arrived without the fuses installed? Nope Fuses look good. Sooo, silly me, I swapped the red tip bulb in BEFORE testing them and apparently it didn't make a good connection. After a reinsertion, viola! We have lights. Yay! I used an eyeglasses screwdriver to remove fuses and needle nose plier to pull them the rest of the way. Happy Holidays days! If only they could have made it more difficult to remove and insert the fuses. Oh wait, that's probably impossible 🙄😂
