Guage LED Problem

For some reason my left most led keep going off and on while driving. Its the led that light up half of the left side of the rpm guage. Sometime it doesn't turn on at all. Anyone experience the same problem after changing the guage lights to leds.

happens with leds when the base isnt designed thick enough to fit snugly into the socket, youd have to take the led out and bend the contact wires so theyre further from the plastic base.
