Background:
Found some Valenti tail lights for super cheap. Haven't bought them yet but I plan to at the end of today.
Problem:
A few amber LEDs are burnt out on the turn signals. Unsure as to how many, he said a few but they still are functioning. He offered to plug them in and let me know but I figure a few LEDs aren't really all that expensive.
Has anyone tried to crack these things open and tried to repair them? He is selling his because they are not under warranty and using the money to buy new ones. At the worst, I won't get anywhere and lose a handful of bucks but nothing horrible. They still function so I could use them if I wanted but having an LED not work would make me go a little irked.
As for my ability, I am an electrical engineer. So fixing the actual light would be easy. Just cracking them open is what I'm kinda worried about. My guess is that I'm going to have to preheat the oven to 220 F, season with salt and pepper, then bake for a few minutes until gooey. XD
Let me know if you guys have any advice.
