Default Audi Side Assist Bulb Replacement

Hi, I’ve got a 2018 Audi Q5 premium plus and recently the driver side side assist indicator doesn’t turn on. When going into the MMI to adjust brightness, the right side mirror led and both red leds light up, but not the mirror led on the driver side. The driver sode mirror was replaced by Audi at 35k miles due to vibration issues. Any suggestions? I thought maybe the LED is just out since there are no indicators in the MMI For any faults. I’m currently at 80k miles so I’m unfortunately out of warranty.

See pictures here for taking the mirror apart on my S5. It has to be pretty similar on the Q5. You will be able to see if the connector is loose and check for voltage as well.

I’ll give it a shot if it happens again. After restarting the car a few times, the side assist indicator started working again. The side indicator from Ali looks sweet!
