Question Interior lights won't go off

The led interior light bulbs finally came in today and when I put them in the three lights that come on when the door is open will not completely turn off. What do I need to fix them?

Your not the first I've heard mention this after LED interior bulb install. Seems to be common, but not really an issue. I guess extremely low draw.

I'm sure others will chime in that have done this.

The front light just barely stay on, the center light goes completely out and the one in the back stays on a little brighter than the front

So, it seems you are doing the thieves a favor, they need to see if there is anything worthwhile in your car.

There must be some sort of latching going on, you probably would have to add a resister somewhere. Maybe on the ground side?
