Question:
I have water inside one of these BUL11CBX, do I need to be concerned or just wait until it fails before I replace it. Thanks in advance.

Expert Reply:
If you have water inside the LED Backup Light w/ Flange for Trucks or Trailers part # BUL11CBX then that means the seal is broken. I recommend replacing this light as not only will it affect the luminosity of the light but it is very likely to cause a short on your trailer wiring harness. The seal can be broken by tightening the screws which hold the light too tight or just wearing out over time.
