Hmm, just a thought:
If I understood the problem correctly, you want the LED to show some
failstate, right?

What if you switch the LED on when everything is fine and off would signal
a fail?

If the LED is off then you know it´s either a fail or the LED is broken.
Either way you have to do something.
