Ahh ok, have you checked the connector & any water got into it, the seals are not great on these espesally if someone has had the light off before, is the whole light blinking or just a few led's if its the whole light is sounds like you have a connection problem which could be the connector to the light ...

I swap the light from Right to Left then the problem solve..
it just the Light issue.. I just wonder if any one already open it yet for fixing it?
I Put the Light on Table then jump power to it ... some Led Bulb inside the light is broken...

Ok I took mine off its easy, its not a sealed unit like an headlight, the components are all visable and can be dismantled, all one need to do now is to find the right type of Led's be handy with a soldering gun & away you go, TJ is right about the headlights thats not so simple as the glass is bonded to the housing ...

Most modern lights are glued. We did headlight fixes on Corvettes all the time. The process is bake in the oven at lowest heat about 20 minutes. This softens the glue. Use gloves and work the lenses off with screwdrivers or plastic interior tools. The hard part is cleaning up the glue residue out of the glue track in the light housing. The lens releases usually pretty clean. But we were replacing the lenses because they wouldn't clean up anymore...too foggy.
Then, because I live in the land of fire, I tried these lenses below outside in the sun (107*F) for four hours and the lenses released just as easily as baking in the oven. They glue back in with rubberized construction glue.
This is the set I released with 4 hours of ambient hot air
Then lenses off and glue tracks cleaned up.
One Corvette guy made a business out of this, so if you want pretty sure instructions to remove light lenses from the housings, you can follow his DIY here:
