Hey guys I was I the midst of swaping out the old led for the hvac like the ac light and the other green lights when u turn on the different settings. I did all of them but I got stuck on the last led which was the ac one. There seems to have to not have enough volts to the led. So I tested the. Volts and at a certain point it hits 6 volts so I figured it was a bad solder point so I just got some wire and connected it to the points from the circuit. And still nothing. After that I was testing the pints again but I accudently blew something and it cause the other function LEDs to stop working. I think it has to be the capacitor. Any1 have any thoughts?
