12V LED Identification
I have one LED flickering. I told Miriam to blink in sink with it.... Well to make the story short, it did not work. So I have taken a look.
It turns out there is no part number on the defective LED, can you ID the item?
Thanks in advance for helping

Thanks for the question , I also need to find a replacement LED light fixture for our Escape
Number 5 went into strobe mode this week . Escape sent me 4 replacement fixtures a while back to replace my other 4 defective light fixtures but my warranty is up , so I am on my own

That's a T10 194 wedge LED light bulb. A strange looking one but there seems to be all types out there now.
Here is an example of one like it.

Before replacing the bulb, first try (carefully) using a pencil eraser on the contacts to clean off any oxidation, which can sometimes be the cause of flickering.

There are so many manufacturers of LED's now that you can more or less just replace the bulb with any available, you do not need to be specific other than type and color of the the bulb.

The LED unit must also fit in the light fixture... but the one shown as the original to be replaced is so enormous that just about any other LED unit with the same base would likely fit.
