We’ve all been there—an unexpected burnt-out light bulb that leaves your room in the dark. You might be ready to toss it out and replace it with a new one, but wait—before you spend money on a new bulb or call in an electrician, there’s a clever trick you can try that could save you time and cash. You don’t need to replace the entire lamp just because the bulb burned out. There’s a simple electrician’s technique that can help you fix it in just one minute, and it works like a charm.
Here’s the step-by-step guide to getting your burnt-out lamp working again with minimal effort and cost.
The Secret: The “Pull-and-Twist” Technique
Electricians often use a simple technique to fix a lamp when the light bulb socket seems to stop working.

Over time, the contact points inside the socket can become loose or misaligned, preventing the bulb from lighting properly. This common issue can be resolved with just a slight adjustment.
