side marker lights

[paulo]

Does anyone know if the side marker lights on the Que are a sealed unit or if the light bulb inside is replaceable? I have a right rear side marker light out. Thanks

I did some investigating as well as disassemblying and I found out that it is a sealed unit that contains two LED lights as well as a single resistor for each LED. They use very little current compared to filiment style bulbs and can last up to 100,000 hours of use. I had failed to place a rear stabilizer leg in the locked up position and the leg came down while trailering the Que home. Besides wearing a part of the stabilizer legs base plate, that was dragging on the ground. I think the vibration of the leg hitting the ground damaged this markers LED. It is the only light that was not working. I managed to type the numbers and letters on the lens cover into a search engine and found replacements that were the same thing. I soldered and then use a thumb screw electrical connector that I filled with silicone sealer to prevent water penitration.
