So I have an LED 194 bulb in as my main DomeLight....After getting inside and closing the door the light dims out then its still on!..u can clearly see the LED is still active ON and Nevers turns off completely!....
Anyone else have this problem??
Anyway to fix it?
Thanks!!

ive heard of that happening to people, and i think it is caused by there being leftover power still in the circut or something like that. I dont know of any fix's, but it never happened to me, so i never really looked.

And greg.. I've heard of this happening too.. I remember someone posting about it.. Don't know where that thread is though..
I have the same issue with both the LED lights that I had in mine (the "superbrightleds" 194-sized 6-LED drop-ins, and the Oznium square LED arrays). I'm curious if it's because the leakage current is low enough to not light up incandescent bulbs, but is enough to faintly light up the LEDs.
I've notice that on some cars..
If it's on OFF, it's totally off but at Door mode.. it is very dimly lit...
I don't think there is problem... I don't know the exactl term for it, but I call it voltage leake..
It's just how it's design with to make the Door, OFF, ON switch.. it doesn't completely disconncts... it's done through series of relay...
As of now, I haven't really looked in to it, but it will be too much hassle to fix it...then just live with it...
