Default Problems with LED sidemarkers
Has anyone had problems with this style of LED side markers. I am on my second one for the front left that has flickering LEDS. Any help?

It just looks like one or two of the LEDs are burnt out or maybe the solder joint gets loose when they heat up (if they even get hot). I guess it depends on the brand and where they're made. I got mine a year ago from Southwest Speed and they are all still working with no burn outs.

It is most likely to be a couple of bad solder joints. If you know how to solder, you can check and repair, otherwise replace them.

I had one out of my first set like that. They replaced it without question.
