LED Interior Light Issue

JcLusso · 12-04-2011, 08:13 PM

I installed LED Interior lights from Khoality and I don't think its the bulbs but sometimes the lights won't turn on. Its really odd. Like the dome light button will turn on the floor lights sometimes but not the dome light or the small lights will turn off randomly and than wont turn back on without a car restart. I tried putting original bulbs in but they wouldn't turn on either....

Mine has done the same thing since installing LED lights inside also. Would love to know why.

The HPB kit I have now doesnt do this but I had a kit before that did error out like the original thread starter mentioned. What you are experiencing is the car thinks the light is out and shuts down the power. This is happening because your current kit is not canbus. Basically its not sending enough resistance that the car expects so it shuts down that circuit.

Here is where I got the kit.

It is a kit from www.highperformancebulbs.com

That kit is error free and bright.

If you go on their website you can just order the domelights and map lights that will work.
I dont see their new domelights on their website yet but you could possibly email them.

They have a new domelight that sits flush and clean in the housing.

^That is correct.

The HPB kit will not error out. Let me know if you guys have any questions.
