Issue resolved w/ Diode Dynamics.
Edit 2:
Seems like the email server did not like the formatting of my previous email(s). Even though it was cleared up on 6/6, the response for my address never went through to the right channels. This is cleared up and RMA is taken care of. I was under assumption that a reply on original order confirmation email would help, but the formatting/headers of the email clearly caused an issue. Thanks for clearing it up DD. (Original post below for clarity.) I do not understand why it takes so long to get something replaced under warranty. I bought a pair of LED license plate bulbs in Feb 2015. It's been acting up in the last 6 months, but finally both decided to die after April. I contacted them May 28 about warranty. No reply. June 1, no reply. June 2, no reply. I contacted them on Facebook on June 3rd and was told there was a server issue preventing my emails from going through. I got an email on June 6th asking to verify my address, and I replied the same day with my address. (Edit: they replied to my original email on Monday June 6th and I confirmed the same day on my shipping address) I sent an email today (6/24) asking for an update, because nothing has been sent to me. @Diode Dynamics please respond to my email and let me know what else I can do to warranty these defective bulbs. -alex Last edited by mav1178; 06-28-2016 at 02:10 AM. |

I had a warranty claim with them in the past and they shipped the replacement part to my door within 2 days. I called them directly and they were very responsive. I think a phone call is always best for these things. Hopefully this gets sorted out for you.

I can call but it really doesn't solve the first problem of communication. If I confirm my mailing address upon request, shouldn't it just be processed for RMA from that point on? I offered pictures or any other step(s) for warranty claim, and all I was asked was to provide my shipping address. -alex |

For most transactions, a phone call always lights a fire under whoever you talk to. Whatever the problem is, it would normally be acted on right then. Just trying to give advice so you get this resolved immediately.

Weird, I also had a license led go out on me last month and once I put in an RMA ticket, I received confirmation next day and received a replacement pair within a couple of days.
Hope everything works out for you! |

I agree that phone call is always best option. However if a company has a customer service email it should be prompt as well. IMO an email unanswered after 1 business day is not acceptable even if that reply just says they got your message and are looking into it.
I prefer email because I work night shift and and I am asleep during most of the 9-5 business day so I will usually send any emails or whatever in the early morning hours. Email is very convenient for my circumstances and if a company doesn't respond it turns me off.

I've had a few license plate LED's pop from Diode Dynamics and they've been very quick about getting replacements to me through their online form.
I think that it would be an exception if something was missed, based on my personal experience. Looks like you've got Nick to help you out now at the very least to see what went wrong

@Diode Dynamics I have a very specific question about the always on module and it was answered before with a "watch the video" and the video does not help, it only mentions function of the jumper/module on the ON position and does not describe the function with the jumper in the OFF position.
Always on module. Function I want= Day time DRL ON, Boomerangs ON. Night time DRL OFF, Boomerangs ON. 1. Is it possible with one setting? 2. With the DRL jumper on OFF position, how does the DRL function at day/night? 3. With the Boomerang jumper on OFF position, how does it function at day/night? 4. What if the jumper is removed completely? Will it function like stock? Can I just use the jumper on the ON position for the boomerang and remove the jumper completely for the drl to get my desired setting? |

Just so everyone knows, basically my original reply to DD was received without error messages sent back. Email was sent via Gmail from a desktop Chrome browser. The only thing I can think of is that because the original email had a [abc-123-45678] header to the email, perhaps the server flagged it but did not forward it to proper inboxes. I sent a completely separate email w/ a screenshot of my original email with a subject line without the formatted header, and it was received properly. Something worth mentioning in case others attempt to do RMA or follow up emails in the same manner. -alex |
