Why are my lights tripping out?
Here’s what to do if your lighting keeps tripping your circuit breakers: Circuit breakers can trip due to any number of problems. That can include water damage, frayed wiring, worn fittings, bad connections, faulty transformers or simply an electrical load that is more than the system can handle.
Is it OK to reset main breaker?
It is safe for someone to reset a home’s circuit breaker if all that needs to be done is a simple reset.

What causes a light bulb to come back on?

Why does a lamp turn on and off?
Heat moves through a heat sink proportional to the difference in temperature. So as the air around the heat sink gets warmer, the heat sink loses effectiveness. If your lamp has a confined space, or if it is a downlight with no ventilation, it can capture heat (heat rises) and the heatsink will not cool properly.
What causes the Mil light to come back on?
Multitudes of conditions exist, for the various tests and they vary from one vehicle to another. What seems like a random occurrence of the MIL is logical, according to the way they program the vehicle. Once the MIL has come on, an issue is present, even if it goes back out. When the failed tests run again, the light will come back.
Why does my LED light keep turning off?
So as the air around the heat sink gets warmer, the heat sink loses effectiveness. If your lamp has a confined space, or if it is a downlight with no ventilation, it can capture heat (heat rises) and the heatsink will not cool properly. Better LEDs have thermal detection and will shut off to spare the LED emitter from overheat.
