Ambient lighting not working drivers door handle

Any idea how to fix or diagnose one led not working on the drivers door handle, interior? All others are working. I’ve had my door panel off a few times to fix door locks and mirror assembly wiring harness, hoping not a wiring issue. Minor nuisance for a nice feature, but I won’t lose sleep over it.

Hello, I have the same problem with my 2022 GLE , but the fuse itself at diagram is 417 7.5A. But I can't find this fuse in the compartment. 317 fuse is 25A.

I did something similar a few years back, when I put the door panel back on I pinched one of the thin ribbon cables, breaking a wire trace. Replace whatever cable is going to that LED
