To identify which LED pad is the problem:
The pads are in series, so when one is done, they will all stop working.
Try bypassing a pad by shorting it.
Use a copper wire and connect B+ to B-.
When you bypass the faulty pad, the others will light.

When you remove the cover, you will see the connections are labeled.
So just follow the steps above.

I used this method to isolate and replace a faulty pad.
I'm a cable guy, so I just used a small piece of copper core from a piece of coax

I had my blue channel die on both of my units after around 2 years. Maxspect did replace the control board I think. My LEDs looked burnt almost, the area around each of the blue diodes was cracked. Didnt end up replacing the light pod and they have worked for the last 6 months like new.

I am an electrician aswell so shouldnt be a big deal just never dealt with lights like this. Are all the terminals labeled a(+)(-) and b (+)(-)? I havent quite opened up the fixture itself yet as i wanted to contact maxspect and see what they said.

Yup it's all labelled.
