简介
虽然这些灯有三年保修期，但自己修灯比付邮资寄回要便宜。我从Digikey购买了T1 3/4（5毫米）LED，寻找任何颜色合适的800 mcd或以上范围内的东西。我最终买了：
404-1096-ND（红色）
404-1097-ND（橙色）
C503B-BCS-CV0Z0461-ND（蓝色）
C503B-GCN-CY0C0791-ND（绿色）
404-1092-ND（黄色）
LEDS串联在一起——三组连接到一股。如果组中的一个LED出现故障，该组中的任何LED都不会亮起。诀窍是找出哪个（或一个或多个）是坏的。
如果您有一个工作链或链的一部分，则最简单。如果是这样，请从好股中取出一个LED，并使用该插座从坏股测试每个LED，一次一个。如果LED在好股中不起作用，请按照以下说明更换LED。可能不止一个坏的，所以更换后，如果坏股仍然没有亮起，请转到下一个LED。
如果您没有好的线要测试，并且没有其他方法来测试LED，那么每次从坏链上取下每个LED，并检查导线，以确保它们没有损坏。如果破损，请更换（如果没有，请将LED放回，然后转到下一个。

Hi! Can you tell me the difference between the two types of light bases you show above? The situation I have is I bought a set of the clear LEDs figuring we could get replacements since my husband prefers the colored ones. But, once we started pulling them apart, we found the different sized bases and the only replacement ones I could find had the short stubby base. Are they interchangeable if we pull the bulb out of the base? Do you have any suggestions for us? Thanks for any help!
The reason for the two different size sockets is that if you look at your strand, every so many lights three wire come into the socket instead of two. I think (and this is only a hypothesis) than the shorter sockets are to allow room for the connection of the third wire. Why they didn't just use short sockets for everything I don't know. But it seems likely to me that the short one would work everywhere. I have not tried it.
Thanks so much for posting this guide! My outdoor light strings are far from waterproof and I live in a rainy climate (yes, even in December), so my original LEDs corroded badly and the strings stopped working.
I ordered a whack of replacement LEDs using the reference numbers you provided. Replacement was simple. The results were spectacular -- better than I had dared hope. For $10 and a few minutes work, I kept $200 worth of strings from getting tossed. Thanks a bunch!
