Hi. I was told by certified estore that my backlight is broken due to water damage. Will buying this part fix my backlight problem? Thank you!

if your screen does not show anything at all, then that is not a problem with your backlight. It may be an issue with your motherboard. Water damage does not usually affect the screen.

Mine worked fine. Maybe its the light bulb that needs to be replaced. I don't know how to do that. Return it if you can.

Hmmm, I don't personally. Not sure where you'd find that. You might just need to bust out for a new light and use the broken one for spare parts if needed. It's relatively inexpensive, after all, compared to other lights like this.

This should work to get your lights back to normal. Mine would either be off or on and since I replaced this part it works right. If u are not to savvy watch videos on YouTube. It is a fast and easy fix. Take less then 10 minutes. If this doesn't work out may be loose wires. But this should fix your problem. Hope everything works out!!! :-)

We found the same thing after we had already ordered received and installed the new light (which we bought here instead of the dealer's because of the large cost savings). My husband was a mechanic for 35 yrs and said certain types of connectors were more prone to it than others (we had two Volvos that he tracked down numerous electrical problems to them). He always puts connector grease on any fitting after trying to clean it with a very fine file, sandpaper, or solvent (and then blows it out with the air compressor before installing the new fitting with connector grease). We have been running this same light we bought on Amazon since 2008 when the 2007 factory installed light failed and have not had to buy another one. If they are exposed to a lot of waterspray like his fog lights, he sometimes puts a high heat silicone over them as well.

We had a different neon light that got broken & we took it to a beer distributor & they fixed it for us. Never knew that they have people that fix them. Was expensive but the light was worth some money. Call a distributor where ever you live & they can tell what they charge because you might be better off just buying a new one.

Take a look in the back and see if the lamp is still working. If it's not it's supposedly easily replaceable.Have you had the concave screen problem I've had?

When my stick first shipped, it got broken in shipping. The customer service people were awesome and replaced it immediately. I would suggest you contact them about a replacement light. My experience was that they want to say yes!

Jose, return it for a new one. That is exactly what happened to me. The second light works great! I have a chev silverado and I put the light under the license plate in front. Looks and works great!

I'm really not sure. If you take the rear light cover off you should see the model number and part number on the logic board. Google it and you should find the exact replacement part. It's an easy repair. There is also a how to video on You Tube. Good luck.

During a heavy rainstorm water got in one side and one led went out. (It turned black) The light only put out about as much as a candle and was rendered useless. I replaced it and overkilled the silicone sealant around it. Don't let water get into it. See my review under the name Phillip.

Rode with it in a heavy rain for 3 hours, and it no longer works reliably, so I think that answers the question... Same happened with the PlanetBike tail taillight...

Patricia - I suggest going to Home Depot. I've noted that they have the same light on display, so one of the sales reps could potentially help you with replacements.

This is the digitizer (touchscreen) and not the display. You will have to go for lcd screen replacement if your backlight is not working.

Buy a new one. When these have anything go wrong, it is cheaper to buy a new one than try and fix. I had problems with the light on mine, and it was not the light, but something in the wiring. I purchased a new one from Amazon. Very happy

I'm still trying to contact the seller myself cuz my brights don't work on my passage side and I even replaced the bulb. But I even got an answer back. But I tried to contact the seller though amazon. I'm not going to be much help for u sorry. I dont know how to get a hold of them.

"Whoa!" The Auto darkening mechanism should be in working order prior to purchase. Mine seems to be working just fine. Itʻll be a good idea / note: to customer service. Thanks for the heads-up just the same.
