Hello,
I have a 2001 Monte Carlo SS that I have upgraded to LED lighting in the HVAC and Instrument cluster because most of the old lamps were burnt out.
About 6 months ago I replaced the ones in the HVAC area with these LEDs
I have had no issues with them in the HVAC area they have an inline 440 ohm resistor added to each one.

I then decided to replace the ones in my instrument cluster about 2 months ago and it has been working fine until recently.

There is one LED out of 12 that decided to start flashing rapidly about 3 days ago any ideas as to what is causing this?

Since I cannot edit my post I want to say that they are 470 Ohm resistors not 440.
