Default Truck Lit phase 7 problems

I've had a truck lite phase 7 since September 2012 and now the led light is starting to flicker and not turn on. Fuzes are good power is there. Is it safe to assume that the led light is failing. Just seems strange that LEDs would stop working so soon. Anyone else have this problem and what did you do to fix it.
Thanks

Make sure the power supply is constant, uninterrupted 12 Volts. If so I would suggest you return your LED for a exchange. It would appear the one you have is defective.

Make sure the connector at the light is making good contact. Did you use dielectric grease when you assembled it originally.

Thanks guys.
Yes it is plugged in and there is the correct power reaching the plug. I just got done testing it. I did not use the grease when I first put it in.

Like mentioned, try dielectric grease in the connector. If that doesn't work the Truck-Lite has a 3-Year Warranty.

Are both LED flickering high/low beam if both it sounds like a power source problem, if just one LED is causing the problem then it sounds like a bulb, just an idea.
