2012 LED Tail Light flickering but not dead
Hey All,
I have a 2012 G37 IPL and when my brother was driving it this weekend I noticed that the rear passenger LED (right ring of lights) in the tail light appears to be very dim and flickering- at first I thought it was completely off until I looked closer. Everything else tail light related on the rear passenger side
is working. Not sure if anyone has seen this issue; not sure if this is a wiring problem or the light has vibrated to death on the crappy Toronto streets where I do most of my driving.

My truck has LED tail lights, my right side tail light failed. I figured since it was already dead, I'd crack it open and take a look. I was able to remove the circuit board and resolder everything. It had a few bad solder joints. Works perfectly again, $0 to repair.
Most car LED lights don't have dead LEDs, they usually just have a bad solder joint somewhere.
