W204 C220 CDI
Hi everyone, this is my first post to the forum and I'm here to get some advice/help (please). I've noticed I have a dull LED in the near side taillight. After having a quick search online it appeared that this was a common problem, dodgy earth, lots of heat and corrosion and a pretty simple fix. However, after a look at the cables and cluster panel pins no signs off damage.
Tried attaching an extra cable to brown cable runway and to some bare metal hoping to see some brightness but nothing, hoping it was a weak earth. I'm now left to think that the LED has gone in the unit? So my question is, is it possible to to change the LED and how? I'm under the impression it's a sealed unit.

Thanks again for any help, it's most appreciated. I've added photos to clarify everything.
2012, W204, C220 CDI.
