Could be a faulty LED. I had to replace a pair of license plate LED that I put in with resistors in just 3 days. Thought LEDs were suppose to last longer? I dono, but try replacing the LED. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

Led are polarity sensitive. I don't know what type you have, is it possible to wire it the wrong way?
