I have a 2010 J10 1.5 diesel model. My brake light went out and when i went to replace the bulb i found out it was an led panel. Does anyone know of where to buy this panel as i don't fancy shelling out £70-80 for a full light

Unfortunately the post facelift J10 tail lamps and brake is LED. They do not sell the individual part and it is the whole unit. I believe some people on the forum have bought the LED/SMD and soldered it in where it has gone bad. If you are handy with a soldering iron, this may be an option or to check if the circuit board has damaged dry joints on some of the solders.SeanLaytham wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 7:36 pm I have a 2010 J10 1.5 diesel model.

First of all check all the connectors you can find - it may be as simple as a loose or corroded connector rather than a new light.

Thanks for the help guys. I did find a replacement part but its from AliExpress (not happening) I just thought someone might know if there was an aftermarket alternative. I'm no good with a soldering iron but my Brother-in-law is (he build planes for a living) so he's going to look at it. The bottom row of led's are burnt out due to a leaky case. Thanks again

Ah! Burnt out! That explains why it's not working then!
