Ok, toning i have removed the led bar from the spoiler .... see the steps below

1- Remove the glue between the spoiler and the led bar with a small and long knife
2- Pull out the red glass slowly ...
3- Remove the circuit from the glass

I have only one led burned out but ... 25 of the 60 leds have a light "brown" color on the electrodes inside ... and the burned out is totally black. I will change it !!

Look at the circuit board and inspect the solder connections for the non-functioning diode, They may only need to be resoldered.

Ok, and the "brown" led is good or it's a futur burned out?

There is not much heat associated with an LED (but never say never) If it is working O.K. I would just leave it alone. Unless, the inoperative diode needs replaced then order an extra.

I have noticed more and more of the LED models with sections out I try to keep a close eye on mine.

Let us know what was needed to solve it.
