Amio LED bulb C5W 31mm 9x SMD 3014 12V Standard

The Amio LED bulb C5W 31mm 9x SMD 3014 12V Standard is a compact festoon-style replacement lamp for 12V vehicle interiors and license plate lights. At 31 mm length and fitted with nine SMD 3014 chips, this LED bulb is designed to offer consistent illumination with lower power consumption than traditional incandescent C5W bulbs. It installs in standard 31 mm festoon holders and is suitable for applications where a small, efficient light source is required.

Advantages

This Amio LED bulb delivers a bright, even light output from multiple SMD 3014 emitters while drawing significantly less current compared to conventional bulbs. Its compact 31 mm festoon form factor enables straightforward, tool-free replacement in existing 31 mm sockets. The low heat generation and durable solid-state construction reduce the need for frequent replacements and make it suitable for prolonged use in enclosed vehicle fixtures.

Suitable for

• Automotive dome and map lights
• Trunk and glove compartment illumination
• License plate lamps requiring a 31 mm festoon bulb
• Interior ambient lighting in cars and vans

When it may not be suitable

The bulb is intended for 12V electrical systems and specific 31 mm festoon holders; it is not suitable for 24V systems or fittings that require different lengths or base types. Vehicles with monitoring circuits or sensitive CAN-bus systems may require additional resistors or CAN-bus adapters to avoid error messages when replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs.

Key specifications

• Type: 31 mm festoon LED bulb
• LED chips: 9 × SMD 3014
• Operating voltage: 12 V DC
• Application: interior, license plate, trunk lighting
• Construction: solid-state LED, low heat output

How to use

Ensure the vehicle electrical system is switched off before replacing the bulb. Remove the cover or housing to access the existing 31 mm festoon lamp, carefully extract the old bulb from the clips, and insert the Amio 31 mm LED in the same orientation. Refit the cover and test the light. If polarity-sensitive, rotate the bulb 180 degrees and retest. If the vehicle displays a bulb-out warning, consult the vehicle manual or install a compatible load resistor or CAN-bus adapter.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the fixture uses a 31 mm festoon bulb and the vehicle electrical system is 12 V.
• Check compatibility with vehicle monitoring/CAN-bus systems to avoid dashboard errors.
• Ensure the light output and color temperature meet your interior lighting preferences.

Usage recommendations

For best results, handle the bulb by the ends to avoid contaminating the LED surface, avoid installing in fixtures with inadequate ventilation if continuous high brightness is required, and verify fitment before final assembly. If error messages appear after installation, use a CAN-bus compatible adapter or consult an automotive electrician.
