Ambient Lighting Not Working on w222 after Blend Doors fixed

Just got my car back today, and see that the ambient lighting on my w222 is not working under one part of the dash. This was NOT the case before the dash was removed and the blend door actuators were fixed. I attached the pics right here. Does anyone know if this is an easy fix?

I attached pictures now and what it looked like before. Thanks!

Now, after dash was removed. It's just under the climate control buttons.

Before.

That is really odd... I've seen entire strips stop working but never just a small section. I hope you find a remedy to this!

Have the dealer revisit to make it right.

Went back to the dealer. They repositioned the LED with no charge. All fixed!
