has anyone experienced a dimness in light from their tachometer after a led swap?

i'm not sure if the leds are going out (so soon) or it's just a bad solder connection.

everything else works fine and bright, but just the tachometer side... it's really dim compared to the rest. at times, it will be bright just like the rest, of 90% of the time, it's not.

i had the led swap for about 3 months.

suggestions?

thanks guys.

 

who did the swap for you?

 

one of my best friend. but he left for college though.

 

possible bad joint.... some leds not lighting up.. sure?

open 'er up and redo the joints

 

did he use the right LEDs? could be bad leds too..

 

it was the right leds, cuz all the other worked. my speedo and gas/temp gauge work fine and my center console lights up fine also. only just the 3 leds from the tach gauge. it works, but it's dim. it's probably a bad led, i'll just replace it. cuz when he was doing the swap, we had like 5 bad leds.
