How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before opening the housing.

Steps to diagnose stuck light:

  • 1. Remove bulb: If the light output remains energised (measured with a meter) even with no bulb, the relay is stuck.
  • 2. Check for external wiring: Ensure no external switch is back‑feeding the light circuit.

Repair typically requires replacing the Gliderol control board or having the relay replaced by an electronics technician.
