Potevi fare direttamente un ponticello di stagno sui terminali del led bruciato ed gli altri si accendevano lo stesso. Chi garantisce che la caduta della corrente sulla mescola che hai fatto (se c'è) sia uguale con gli altri led? Perché in questo modo aumenti la corrente sui altri Led e saranno destinati a una vita molto corta. L'unica soluzione valida è sostituire il led bruciato, e se riesci aggiungere ancora uno in più nella serie, succede che abbassi la corrente sui ogni led, così aumenti la loro vita.

The amperage remains the same so there is no fire risk from overheating but as some have said on here a small resistor is a more elegant way of doing it. I would just blob the the open trace with solder and be damned with a fast and dirty fix as it is not worth any more time and attention than this.

Another one mentioned this. No it would cause the LED's to be brighter till another one burned out. LED's do not like running at higher voltages than they are rated for. These are about 3v and if you remove one and put a bridge where it was you alter the voltage to be above the rating. Most of these bulbs have LED's in series. this one has 15 so 15x3 = 45. Lets assume they are all in series as some are in parallel pairs of series too. But for this example assume they are all end to end connection. If you remove one and short it then you are causing 14 leds to share the same voltage that 15 use. so you get an extra 3 volts. so 14 leds now should be powered by 42v not 45v and as a result they will draw more current and get hot. Hotter than they are supposed to and the weakest one will burn out.

Why not buy a new bulp, than risk of being electrified or burning your house down.
