You're getting internal stray light onto the chip.
If you're worried about disconnecting the LED and depending on how proficient you are at modding, maybe you could open the case and pull the LED through it's mounting hole to the outside of the case and leaving it connected and not affect the circuit.
Then block the hole so no stray light can enter and leave the LED painted if you wish.
