Please, use search. The issue was discussed.

In short, you have to take the unit apart and replace LEDs which are soldered to the board.

Did a search didn't find anything either. I find it odd both LEDs burnt out at the same time, either way I'm assuming the unit has to come out to do board level repair/replace components.

The link below is for older gen, but it demonstrates what it takes to replace some of LEDs.
