Replaced some lights with led light and now no interior lights are working

Like the title says...starting replacing my interior lights with LED lights. The map lights when in beautifully and work great. I replaced the dome lights and now no interior light works. I put the stock bulbs back in and same thing. Any ideas what could be wrong??? The connectors that you push the lights into where a little loose which is why I had issues putting the new bulbs in but once I got them in they still didn't work. I'm at a loss.

Sounds like a blown fuse - check the fuse under the dash

Same happened to me when replacing the interiors, I believe the dome light is a 20 fuse, should be easy to replace

Okay, I figured this is what happened. I thought I read in the manual last night that it was a 10a fuse. Are you sure it is a 20?

Anyone know? I am going after work to get the fuse.

Yeah, I just found the diagram online and it says interior lights - 10a. I am assuming that is the fuse that blew.

Buy a small pack that will have 5,10,and 20 amp in it. there cheap and some times a lot easier to find than just one amperage fuse

It is definitely the 10A interior room light fuse. You should have at least 2-3 spares in the fuse box.

Were you able to get this fixed?

How dramatic was the difference with the new lights?

LED Interior Lights

I did the same thing. I accidentally blew a fuse as well. Once I replaced the fuse I am a happy camper. The lights are amazingly bright and white. The interior looks great at night. I replaced all 6 lights and my license plate lights. :)

Like anything electrical, pull the fuse (or turn off the breaker if it's in the house) if you're replacing components that have constant power.

It feels like I'm the only 1 here that likes the soft glowing amber lights :(

I took the fuse out when I finished putting the lights in. I snapped a few pictures this morning, not the best but you get the idea.
