Hey guys. I've got a bit of a weird problem. I had the LED Eyebrow bulbs in my car, but one of them went out. Had an extra laying around for about 6 months that I finally tried to put in today after putting it off for so long, but that one wouldn't light up either. Tried flipping it around and trying it the other way, but it still wouldn't work. Then, I tried to take one of the OEM bulbs that's currently working in my wife's C300 and see if that one would at least light up, but that wasn't working either.

Is there some wiring problem? Anyone else ever experience this? LED initially went out when I hit a bit of a pothole on the highway.

I assume you did lock/unlock your car to reset your SAM?
Did you try to swap sides (left to right or right to left depending on which LED is not working)?
This will allow you to identify if it's the bulb or the wiring that is faulty.

If your car registers a fault or short, you need to turn it off and on in order to reset the circuit.

turning the car on worked. thanks so much!!!!

unfortunately, I've got a new problem now. when I put the LED and wiring back into it's little slot in the headlight, I accidentally pulled the wiring back out as I was pulling my hand back from the tiny space and the LED got stuck in there! I tried taking it out with needlenose pliers, but that didn't work. anyway I can get to it without taking the whole headlight out??

Try a magnet, like one of those telescoping or flexible kind.
