   i had this problem. make sure that the pins bending round the bottom of the LED touch the metal in the socket when you plug them in. also LEDS only work when the correct way round

   You have to make sure the led is the right way round as it wont work. Try taking it out and putting it in the other way. Thats what i did when mine didnt work
