LED Savvy Members - Please step in!

I did an interior LED conversion a while back, and my master window switch has 3 out of 6 LEDs out. Don't know what is causing this.. replaced LEDs assuming they blew.. nothing! The switch has what looks like 2 resistors (?) factory installed, so I don't know if they have anything to do with it..

Anyone else have this problem?

X X
X O <--- Whereas 'X' represents the LEDs that are OUT!
O O

Basically, the window lock switch, door lock switch, and 'AUTO' (drivers window switch), are OUT. The other 3 window switches are still lit, no problems.. any help? (kinda novice in the LED world..)

Was it a bad solder connection?...i know that if ONE is loose...it'll cause 2-3 of them to stop working too.

since they're wired in series of 3 a problem with one will knock out that circuit.
