Illuminated door entry guards inverter dead...

[Oktay]

Hi I've purchased and installed the illuminated door entry guards from Suncoast Porsche. It worked well for 6 months but after that the one at the driver side ceased working. I had it checked to an electrician and he told me that the inverter is dead and that I should replace it with a new one. I cannot find this inverter nowhere :(

I also don't know it's specfications. I know it gets 12V input but I don't know to what does it convert. Does anyone know where I could find one?

Thanks,

Oktay

I'd suggest contacting Suncoast, and see if they can warranty the part. In past experiences with SUNSET Porsche, they were excellent in resolving a part's issue that was flawed. Good luck.

LED's can't pass current so it's probably a resistor block. Any chance you can open it?

It's welded shut and the electrician told me that it cannot be open or fixed. I don't want to contact Suncoast as it woulde more expensive to send it back to then and again back to me afterwards since I'm not in US.

I've just found the following product and contacted them for more info:

I'm planing to order two of these and test.
