License Plate Ligthts

I replaced my license plate lights with LED's about a month ago and they worked perfectly until tonight. All of a sudden they are both out. They only think I can think of is a blown fuse. Does anyone know whare the license plate light fuse is on a 2010? I looked at the panel in the cargo area but I don't think it is there. Any help would be appreciated. One more thing, it is probably just a coincidence but my 3 year old turned on my lights today so they were on for about 3 hours.

check the owner's manual. I'm sure they'll list where it's located in the car. I haven't checked yet on the e70 but when I had my e92 it was located in a few spots. to the left of the light switch when the door was open and inside the glove compartment

Where did you get your LEDs from?? This exact same thing happened to me. They were working until one night they just shut off and would not turn back on. Its not a fuse, if you put the factory lights back in they will work.

I bought them from ebay. They were a bit bright but a bit of tape fixed that. I am going to put the old ones back in next week, I had to order new ones because i accidentally threw out the other ones while I was cleaning out my gatrage.

No such luck for me. I put the OEM bulbs back in and they don't work. does anyone have a clue what could be wrong?
