Led eyebrow flickers/doesn't turn on

Hey, I’m new to the forums and was wondering if someone had a fix for my eyebrow issue since I can’t seem to figure it out. The eyebrow on my driver side headlight tends to flicker or turn off completely but when I role up or down my window it turns on fully, but after a second it starts flickering again. I’m thinking it’s a ground issue, but I want to know for sure before I starting tearing things apart.

See if there is any moisture causing this issie. Check for water leaks in the trunk or inside the car?

No moisture in the trunk or the car as far as i’m concerned. Is there a bulb I could replace?

Hey, I have exact same issue for over a year now. Trying to find a solution still. Have you found a fix for this? I am getting codes for this issue, might be of use. They go as follows;
- A8B7: Right brake light defective, PL3 from 07/14 and SA5A1: Fog lights LED faulty, PL3 from 07/14 and SA896: Daytime running lights halogen right defective.
- A8B6: Brake light left defective, PL3 from 07/14 and SA5A1: Daytime running light LED defective, PL3 from 07/14 and SA896: Daytime running lights halogen left defective.
