Hey info
So I have the "sperm" rear lights and I noticed last night that 4 red lights on the left cluster are not working. Did anybody else experience this with these lights? What could the problem be and how could I fix it?
Many thanks

how long have you had them, its possible that the LED's have each blown one by one, they can be replaced, a member on here has done it before, apparently its pretty easy to do

I had these same led rear lights those 'sperm' ones ar common fault for LED's to go or not work atall, one of my whole side didnt work got fed up so i got phase 2 s.
But now orded some m3 LED's the half red/clear LED's think its just sperm LED's known for common faults.
There is a few on ebay with same faults aswell.

I've had them since November 2010.
What LED's does the lights use?
