Cracked bumper marker light lens may lead to the ingress of water into the light body that, over time, could result in corrosion and potentially, the formation of a salt bridge across the electrical leads near the PCB inside the light body. The current flow through the salt bridge can generate heat that may lead to potential thermal damage to the light. In the event of damage to the light, any thermal event would self-extinguish due to the presence of potting material surrounding the inside of the lamp housing.
