I got into a minor fender bender last week. I noticed a hairline crack in the headlight assembly, but didn't think it would cause an issue.
Everything was working fine for a few days. Then the blinker started hyperflashing intermittently. Then last night the low beam headlight stopped working. The running lamp and high beam still work, and the blinker words most of the time.
I removed the plastic covering the top of the headlight assembly and realized there was a large crack that could have let moisture in. I don't see any water or condensation inside though.
1. Does simple moisture kill LED bulbs?
Without spending a fortune to replace the entire assembly, I see on a eBay they sell the assembly without the bulbs.
2. Does anyone know how can I get just the OEM LED bulbs?
3. Or, should I just use an replacement LED kit instead?
