As a popular car accessory that enhances the beauty and practicality of the vehicle, Led door sill is favored by more and more car owners. However, during use, some users may encounter damage to the LED door sill. Understanding the causes of LED door sill damage can help us reduce the chance of damage during use.
Voltage Issues
LEDs are voltage-sensitive devices. If the current increases during use and the duration or magnitude exceeds the LED’s tolerance, it can lead to damage. Once there is a problem with the vehicle’s power supply system, such as excessively high or low voltage, it can damage the LED strip and even cause internal components to burn out. Sudden increases or decreases in supply voltage can potentially harm the LED door sill protector.
Circuit Faults
A short circuit in a component, printed circuit, or other wiring in the circuit can create a localized short in the LED power supply path, leading to increased voltage and damaging the LED. Short circuits may be caused by component aging, poor connections, and other factors.
Environmental Factors
The LED door sill generates heat during operation. If the heat dissipation is poor or the ambient temperature is too high, it can cause the LED temperature to rise, thereby affecting its performance and lifespan. Prolonged operation at high temperatures can degrade the characteristics of the LED and even cause damage. If water enters the LED door sill or it is in a high-humidity environment, moisture can conduct electricity and potentially lead to circuit shorts or corrosion of components, damaging the LED.
Improper Installation and Maintenance
When installing the LED door sill, if the installation is not performed according to specifications—such as incorrect wiring, inadequate securing, or failure to implement anti-static measures—it can damage the LED. Some highly corrosive cleaning agents may damage the surface coating and sealing materials of the LED door sill. The correct cleaning method should involve using mild cleaners and soft cloths to avoid harming the product.
LED door sill plates not only enhance the interior aesthetics of the vehicle but also provide convenience. However, understanding the potential causes of damage can help car owners be more careful during daily use and extend the product’s lifespan. When purchasing, it is recommended to choose high-quality products from RGB EMBLEM and to conduct regular inspections and maintenance to ensure that this accessory can perform effectively over time.
