We have a fancy bathroom mirror with LED backlights

Its got 16 LEDs group in groups of 4 running off mains transformed down 24dc.

Now some of the LEDs have gone so a row 4 doesn't work.

If I bridge the duff LED the 3 remain come back.

So I can solder in new ones I just have no idea how to work outr which ones I need.

They are white, have a small square base approx 3.5mm x 3.5mm with 4 pins and a dome top???

Help!

Time to go to Maplins with it. Do you have one close by?

No markings whatsoever on the LED?

check for defective or dry joints first.

it is unlikely that the leds have gone
