LED bulbs in Interior
« on: 17 November 2010, 12:28:14 »

I have got some white LED bulbs to go in the interior light. They go in to the reading lights and work fine but they dont seem to in the main ones when you open the doors? They come on gradually with the normal bulbs but the led ones done seem to work? is it something to do with how they fade in and out?

If they`re push in. Take `em out and turn `em 180deg and try again

More likely the delay circuit relies on a certain current.

If push-in bulbs, remove and pop in normal bulbs - much better illumination :P
