Question
A string of my mini christmas lights are not working. I have a bulb tester and every bulb seems to be good. So how do I test the sockets to see where the problem might be?
You wont like this answer. They are not worth the time it takes to find the problem. I throw mine away every year and buy new. I takes a long time to take each one out, replace with a new one, reverse, move on, etc. One bulb will stop the whole string.
