A constant current driving device for constant current driving of a plurality of elements connected in series with each other by a pulse width modulation constant current driving circuit includes: switching elements respectively connected in parallel with the plurality of elements connected in series with each other; a control circuit for performing control to bypass a driving current flowing through the other elements than an arbitrary element to be measured via the respective switching elements and pass a measuring driving current through only the element to be measured; and a detecting circuit for identifying an element at a faulty position by detecting the driving current flowing through the plurality of elements connected in series with each other.
