When I turn on my garage light switch, bulbs in separate sockets come on. If I bought one of these would both lights come on together as now?

The switch to light operates on a frequency. There are different frequencies. If a bulbs are set to the same it should work fine. I do not remember how to determine which bulb is set to what.

The system consists of a socket adapter plus a remote switch to signal the adapter. If you have bulbs in 2 different sockets you need to buy 2 adapters, each of which will have its own remote.

The answer is two fold, but basically most likely not. You would have to first get two bases that work on the same frequency, which is not likely. Then, the two bases would have to not interefere with each other which, if they are close together, is a high likely hood. So, maybe. Most likely no.

They do connect. When I removed a bulb, they all went out, but on another strand, a dead bulb did not result in the others going out.

Both vehicles share the same light sockets. Most, if not all, of the bulbs will work.

No you have to use all the wires. Unlike your old ballast when one light went out they both did. This ballast has separate wires for each lamp. Look on the ballast label for the diagram that tells what colored wires go to one tube and what colors for the other. You'll have to clip the wires on one end of the lamp fixture where the two sockets are joined together. TIP: Make sure you leave a generous length of wire coming from the sockets to work with.

The bulbs do not stay on when the dimmer is off, however, I had some that did. My issue was that the ground line (on the switch) was cut with the switch and the live wire was still connected to socket(s) and current was leaking to the ground. Suggest you switch the power input line and ground line on the switch. If it is a three way switch do one switch at a time.

It will work they are all the same. I would replace the switch bulb assembly

I'm not an electrician, but the socket I replaced looked just like this one, and I assume socket size is universal. Installation was super easy and now my light is 3-way.

It depends how you wire the switch. On one pair of the switch terminals, you can see two fine wires leading in to the switch body. These wires supply the bulb. If you wire mains power to these two terminals, the light will remain on as long as the switch is connected. If you wire input power to the opposite pair of terminals, the switch will illuminate only when it's closed.

This is a socket for three-way bulbs. If your lamp takes three-way bulbs with a chain pull, then it will work. I usually just leave the bottom portion of the socket attached to the lamp, and swap out the inner working with the switch (the part that usually goes bad). You can either use the new top portion, or the one from the original socket. Always unplug the lamp before working on it.

They shouldn't do that..Make sure the bulbs are tight in the socket or you may have a loose connection in the wiring or a defective switch.

Kristen,as far as the light goes there is the two pieces of foam holding the light and the plug . The plug can only go in one way.You may have a defective bulbs.

yes. you have the choice of using both lights at the same time, or just one if you want too.

I purchased for the same reason, but I was under the assumption that both switches were dimmer switches -- they're not! One is a dimmer switch and one is a 3-stage switch meant for a ceiling fan. I ended up not installing it, as I needed side-by-side dimmer switches that would work with low-voltage LED bulbs.

Yes! I have 3 bulbs in one fixture, so I don't know if its just 1 bulb or all 3 making noise. It's like a crackling/popping noise and can happen up to 5 minutes after I turn the light off.

The socket is not powered. The light switch being in the up position is not what determines if power is delivered to the socket. It is the completion of the circuit. There is a computer chip within the light that completes the circuit. They do screw into a normal socket.

They plug into each other and they work great. My only complaint is that it is a soft white light when my preference is bright daylight type light. But we've had no problems at all! Good luck!

If both lights up, u have it wired wrong. At that point, the remaining pin on the bulb is the ground pin. I suggest u get a multimeter to determine which wire is hi/low beams power and ground.
