Rear LED's out
I have an 06 Exige and noticed that on one of my rear tail lights I have 2 LED's out.
How can that be fixed? Searched but did not find anything. Thanks! +anthony

Unfortunately, the only way to fix it, is the replace that entire LED lamp assembly.
At any point in time when one or more LEDs fail on any of the 4 lamp assemblies, definitely get it replaced. |

Get it fixed under warranty if you can. I had several leds on the center brake bar (whatever the thing is called) go out and replaced under warranty.
> Interesting how it is said LED's last for 100,000 hours That is assuming the correct voltage, and probably constant burning, at a constant temperature. I wonder if voltage fluctuations are the main culprit for early burn out.

LED's are subject to flaws, or manufacturing issues same as anything else, 100,000 or such numbers are usually MTBF
