DIY window switch LED fix

[Big White]

For some reason, this expy has a few switch led's out. I started with the window on the drivers side. The SMD led's had come loose on the two forward LED's, and a resistor had also. By loose, I mean the solder joint flaked out. Not pretty, but I hit all the SMD connections with the iron, and all is good now. You really have to pin the board back on to the assembly by taking a small screwdriver and whacking it to spread the mounting fingers to hold it in place.

ok...i have no clue as to what im doing with something like this...anyone close to me that has upgraded their LEDs in their doors??? i have the LEDs...just need it done...anyone???

I dunno about upgrading anything, I just want them all to work. I want to get the switches in the steering wheel to light up next, but not sure how hard it is to get to them. Odd that so many are not working. The light switch itself has lighting, but that is not LED according to the FSM. I also fixed the single switch in the door.

pic?

That pic I posted is of the LED's. It would be tough to put conventional leds on there, they would have to be surface mount devices (smd's). The smaller switch looked similar, it only has two leds on it.
