The present disclosure is directed to a method for detecting a failure in a signal light. In one embodiment, the method includes monitoring operation of one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) of the signal light coupled to a constant current driver, detecting a short circuit in at least one of the one or more LEDs and signaling a failure in the signal light when the short circuit is detected.
