Only half of your LED Christmas lights working can typically be traced to a few common issues: a loose or damaged bulb, a faulty wire, or a problem with the socket. First, check all bulbs to ensure they're securely screwed in. If that doesn't solve the issue, inspect the strand for visible damage. Lastly, try replacing a bulb from the non-working section with a new one. Often, replacing one faulty bulb can bring the entire string back to life.
