Default Help me troubleshoot my interior LED effects

I got the interior LED light effects put in by the dealership when I got my TC. They have worked fine until a few days ago--they just stopped working all together.

Well I assume its a fuse, but Ive checked EVERY fuse (every mini fuse anyway) and cant tell what the problem could be.

Is there a known issue with this kit? Is there a specific fuse I can examine again and see if Ive missed it? Please help! Thanks.

Moved to ICE...

My thoughts: if the dealer put them in... and they're not working now... take it back to the dealer.

You could use a volt meter to check the voltage right off the LEDs.

If there's 12v, then the LEDs are defective. If there is not 12v then there's something wrong with the wiring, and you could re-wire it to 12v...

I hate my dealer. If the car is running, they treat every other problem as minor.

yep Im going to try checking the voltage. Are there detailed instructions for the wiring for these somewhere online? The ones on this site are bundled with the subwoofer and dont show a schematic.

Any illustrated help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Stick your head under the dash with a flash light.

There's likely a plug for the lights.

The plug probably has 2 wires. One for positive, and the other for ground.
