Interior LED dome/map lights error, Please help
I just recently purchased a set of interior LEDs, and everything works fine besides the front dome/map lights.
I believe other members experienced the same issue but it ended without a solution. So here I am again... I installed the kit and after driving for couple days I discovered that the front map/dome lights will not work after driving for a random period of time (that sounds odd but it is happening to me) After restarting the engine the front map/dome lights work again. Then, the front dome/map lights have no response again by pushing the buttons while driving for a extended moment (most likely 5 mins) Basically they are repeating the cycle: not working while driving for 5 mins --> work again after restarting engine --> not working while driving for 5 mins I checked the connection of the front map/dome lights to make sure they are firmly in place and yes they all are. I switched back the OEM bulbs and the front map/dome lights work just fine with any error even when driving. Could it be the design of the bulb? Or other issues that cause this error? |

Interesting. When I installed my kit, the map lights worked fine. I have yet to actually try to use them while driving though. Guess I should see if I have any similar issues.

When the car is not moving the lights work well; the problem surfaces during drive but not all the time. I will say about 70% of the time when I try to push the buttons and they will not respond. 70% is enough to bother me

FYI, I tried leaving the map light on while driving last night and it never turned off. Had it on for 10 mins straight.
