LED Pre-lit Christmas Tree Lights Not Working?

I have been trying to troubleshoot our Home Accents 7.5ft pre-lit LED Christmas tree and need some help. We have had the tree for two seasons without any issues. The contacts between the sections is through the 'trunk ' of the tree and all seems to be OK and lock firmly and smoothly in place.

When I plug in the tree, all the lights blink on for a moment, then nothing. I can plug, and unplug which creates the same blink of every light. It appears that the power is reaching every section and every bulb. Why won't it light? I was hoping to make time today to assemble and decorate, but need help. I prefer to chat with those who have had similar experience before I try the 800 number at customer service. Thanks in advance!

In your case you have one or two problems. First this could be a connection issue with the light strands and not getting a good connection. Try the first one section of lights at a time to plug them in and see if they stay lit or not.

Second, if this problem continue there is one or more loose bulbs on the stands of lights that cause this issue. You will need to check every bulb an make sure it is not loose.

Hi there, thank you for the feedback. For future reference if anyone has the Home Accents, pre-lit LED Christmas tree:

1. LED bulbs can be out or missing and the tree still works (not sure if there is a critical mass where it stops working)

2. Secret to my success- my wife removed the foot pedal switch because the kids kept playing with it. This is fine since it comes with a remote- I believed the remote was working since it flickered red.

This was not the case. As soon as we found the 'hidden' foot pedal and plugged it in, the tree immediately worked!

Now looking for a battery for the remote, and I'm committed to setting up and taking down our tree and decorations each season, so we can limit these problems in the future.

An LED light tester would determine exactly which lights are not working.
