Led Turn Signals Filled With Water

So I just got a Scrambler 1200XC. This past weekend I took a rather long ride up to a camp in the mountains, during my return trip I ended up driving about 100 miles in a tremendous rain storm. No issues with the ride at all, but when I got home I found that my rear turn indicators had both taken in some water. One had droplets all over the inside of the lens, the other was about half full of water. I am used to this on my other bikes, as they all have turn signals that have a small drain in the bottom, and have removable lenses. From what I can tell, the Triumpg LED signals appear to be sealed units and there doesn't seem to be any way to take the lens off to dry them out or clean them. Is this normal, or do I have bad rear turn indicators that need to be replaced?

Thanks.

I know I should, but the nearest Triumph dealership is 2 hours away (where I bought it). Normally I wouldn't complain about an excuse to go for a 4 hour ride, but it isn't the most exciting drive available, so if I can avoid it, I will. I know I should call them and ask, but my experience with dealerships has always been "bring it in and we'll take a look at it". Also right now, there is no water in the turn indicators, so I suspect they would just see that they are currently working and send me on my way.

 

That is a good idea Crispey, but I agree that the dealership probably won't replace them then. Given the replacement cost of the signals, I'll just have to call up the dealership and see what they can do. Old incandescent lights don't seem to get too upset over a little water as long as it doesn't hit a hot bulb and break the glass. My experience with LED lights has been very different. I've found that even short term exposure to water causes the circuit boards to corrode, and usually leads to premature failure. Given the cost of replacements and the fact that bike is brand spankin new. I'll have to call the dealership and as that they proactively replace them.
