Here are some quick tips to fix your lantern

• If your lantern is not powering on, try cleaning the area around the power switch. Dirt or debris could be interfering with its connection.
• If the lantern still doesn’t come on after you clean the switch, open the battery compartment and test the voltage of the batteries. If needed, replace batteries with new ones.
• If the batteries are good but the lantern is still not working, see if the battery terminals have corroded. You can quickly clean these with a pencil eraser.
• If the lantern turns on but the lighting is weak, you may need to replace the light bulb. You can also try screwing the bulb in tighter to see if this fixes the problem.

These are common lantern parts that you might need

• Switch button—The switch button turns the lantern on and off. Wear and tear can sometimes cause this piece to break.
• Handle—The handle makes it easy to carry the lantern from one place to another. Replace the handle if it's damaged.
• Lens or globe—Depending on the type of lantern you have, the lens or globe is the part that focuses or disperses light. If the glass becomes chipped or cracked, replace it.
• Reflector—The reflector is an aluminum part that directs the light out of the lantern. Replace the reflector is it's dull or damaged.
• Fuse—The fuse is a safety device that blows when the lantern has an electrical short. If you have blown a fuse, you will need to fix the electrical short and install a new fuse.
