A tube light may blink when switched off due to residual electrical currents or voltage leaks in the circuit. This can happen if the switch is not completely isolating the light from the power source, allowing a small amount of electricity to reach the bulb. Additionally, faulty wiring or a malfunctioning switch can contribute to this issue. It may also occur if the light fixture uses a type of ballast that allows for such behavior when off.
To control a light with a switch, the switch has to be connected in series with the light fixture.
If you refer to a flurecent tube you need to check the starter if it has one (small round tube in the side of the light), check the fuse box for that light, check the switch for that light and check that the tube youve banged about has not also blown i.e. check in another tube socket if possible
if light is not going off, bad switch or short in wiring to light!!
That depends on your meaning. Are you talking about turning off the breaker when you screw in a new lightbulb or fluorescent tube? That isn't necessary, but it is a good idea to turn off the switch. If you're talking about installing a new light fixture, yes, you should always turn off the breaker or remove the fuse. Many electricians, if they are sure of what they're doing, will simply make certain that the light switch is turned off.
Always cheaper to switch it off and on rather than leaving it on.
The light is blinking on and off because there may be a problem with the electrical connection or the light bulb itself. This can be caused by a loose wire, a faulty switch, or a flickering bulb.
To check the hold light blinking of a Mazda Protege, take off the plastic over the shifter tube or bar. Then take off the console below it and look at the wires that come up from the hollow center of the tube. The edge of the shifter tube may have cut through the wire insulation.
If your theft light keeps blinking while driving, chances are you have accidentally hit the toggle switch underneath the dash. Find the toggle switch that is located near the panel and click off the button.

You pay for what you use. If the light is left on then it is costing you.
The lights are blinking on and off because there may be an issue with the electrical connection or a problem with the light bulb itself.
The security light will blink when either door, hatch, or hood is opened and will continue blinking until it is closed. Check all 4 switches for proper operation. If the bad switch is disconnected it should turn off the light. If the security light is on constantly instead of blinking that is to let you know that the alarm system is activated and should turn off after a few minutes.
