A lighting system having multiple light sources is provided, which includes a first light source and a second light source. The first light source includes a first control module, a second memory module, a first lighting-emitting module and a first detection module. The second light source includes a second control module. When the first light source and the second light source are electrically connected to a power source, the first control module and the second control module turn off the first light source and the second light source respectively. The first control module reads the data of the first memory module of the first light source to determine whether the first light source malfunctions, and turns on the first light-emitting module when the first control module determines that the first light source does not malfunction. Then, the first detection module keeps detecting whether the first light source malfunctions.
