I bought and installed the Lux Angel Eyes in February of last year and yesterday got the left daytime running/parking lamp error on my car. When looking at it, the left angel eyes are significantly dimmer than the right one, but it's still lit up. I figured if it was burnt out, it would be completely dark but it's not. That, and I thought LEDs would have a much higher longevity. What's going on here? Am I out of luck and need to replace it? Kind of disappointed if that's the case - and of course they are out of stock.

Sorry to hear that

for all LEDs there is a Ballast, whether built into the bulb housing or not.
I had a similar issue with my led fog lights.

right fog light error, but working.

so I swapped left to right the bulb, the error stayed.
so I swapped the ballast from left to right and problem followed where left was now giving error.

people say LEDs don't burn out, that may be true for the bulbs, but who's to say the ballast or electronics governing it can't go wrong.
I recommend contacting LUX.
