When the led light bulb goes bad, can it be replaced or should the whole unit be replaced?

The whole unit must be replaced. There are no bulbs to replace, just a complicated integrated circuit including little LED lights. For what it's worth, my two have been running a year without mishap, and I expect them to function many years more. At this price (if I am right about longevity), you don't need to be worried about replacing bulbs.

Yes you can replace all of the electronic parts including the sensor, but because of my time involved after replacing many of these parts, for me I feel it is less expensive just to buy a complete new light. Buy separately a new bulb, capacitor, and sensor, your at the cost of a complete new unit. I called Cooper Lighting's toll free number and they provided me with a source of these parts. It might be worth replacing parts you if you have a lot of free time, which I do not have.

I have not had the need to replace the bulb. I don't think led bulbs go out that often.

Try replacing just the first light bulb that's out at the point at which the rest of the string doesn't work. It might be blown and not able let the current flow to the rest of the bulbs.

If it's LED based, then you can't replace the bulb because there isn't one. If it doesn't light up, it's hard to say why. It sounds defective. Check with the manufacturer.

I don't know, have not had to replace light yet. I would contact the manufacturer.

It looks like a tiny LED bulb.. I'm not entirely sure if it can be replaced.

all the bulb parts, cord, control board, and bulb are replaced as a unit, can not replace just the bulb. mine has been on for 8 months. amazon

I'm not aware that they can be replaced without sending the unit back to the manufacturer. I'm also not aware that the lights would need to be replaced with non-commercial normal use.

Simple answer, meant respectfully: if you have to ask, then probably not unless you have a friend who is technically inclined.. But the loss of 1 or 2 leds wouldn't really matter. More than a few failures, and it would probably be best to replace the whole unit.

My guess would be the bulb is bad.It's easy to replace but you may want to call a local tv repair place if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself

It's not likely the LED will go out. If it dies it will be the whole unit, music + lights.When the whole unit dies, just email warranty.service@musiclites.com and explain what happened and they will RMA it.

you can try to get the led bulb replaced or replace the whole stereo replaced what ever is cheaper when mine went out I replaced the whole stereo sense it was five years old.

Buy a new one. When these have anything go wrong, it is cheaper to buy a new one than try and fix. I had problems with the light on mine, and it was not the light, but something in the wiring. I purchased a new one from Amazon. Very happy

I would ask the seller. These are LED lights so they can't just be replaced. If its new the unit may be bad. Sorry

Yes.It's an LED bulb.It is built into the unit. They can't be replaced seperately.

Unfortunately like most LEDs the fixture containing the bulb is closed. Unless you are familiar with fixing electronics by testing circuits to determine which part is bad, you must replace the whole unit. For what it's worth, my understanding is LEDs have a super long life and its usually a resistor that goes bad before the led circuit chip that you see light up. The units themselves are very well built. Used a male plug adaptor from Harbor Frght. Currently have two to light up the house from 25 feet away wih cool color light. Have worked now nightly for two years no problems. Would purchase again! Unfortunately like most LEDs the fixture containing the bulb is closed.
