i switched from the stock interior bulbs to LEDs a couple of months ago and last weekend i was out and i was in my car in pitch darkness. then i looked down at my door and i saw my step door light partially on. i was tripping, so i checked the other door and yeah the led was partially on, it was "dimly" on.

does everyone with leds have this happen? i checked my back doors which DONT have leds, and those are completely off.
worried cus it could possibly kill my battery at some point, though its been months and it hasnt happened yet.

they shouldnt be staying on. could be bad LEDs u put in

The LED's have no way of supplying their own power unless they have some kind of capacitor. You may have an issue with the door wiring or switch.

my car does the same thing, I have 3% tint all around and 30% on the whole windshield,so my car gets real dark.. I noticed mine when pulling into my garage, and staying in the car on the phone for a few minutes, Its a very dim glow, and its all 4 doors.. and I also have LED's

I also have the same thing,I have led on all door.I notice it when I'm sitting in my car sometimes, this also happened on my previous gs3 so I'm thinkin it might be normal cuz my battey never drained.

Uh oh. Maybe I have this issue too since I am running LED's. I will have to check later.

i started to comment but since i wasn't sure, i figured i would look before i opened my mouth.

i DON'T THINK im having this problem but i will look later and add to this as im running all LED's also

Im running leds too and they are on only at certain times its weird but IMO since leds dont take much power i dont think that lighting them that dimly can drain the battery to badly.

mine too, only notice it sometimes, faint glow from LED. The few times i have seen it, it has been with the car off, and me inside. Maybe it happens all the time, and I don't pay attention. Who knows!

i've changed out everyone of my interior bulbs to leds, and i don't have this problem. my friend on the other hand also has leds in his and he's having the same problem.

I'm doing an audio build right now and I have the lower cover of the passenger side dash (right underneath the glovebox) pulled off which is exposing the passenger footwell LED bulb. I was surprised to find that it stays very dimly lit all the time...so for me, anyway, its not just the doors.

i got full LED conversion and puddle lights on my mirror covers and they aren't lit when off.

hmm well im glad that at least im not the only one who has this problem.

as a few members mentioned, my leds on my doors only stay very dimly light. its weird cus when i shut my doors all lights and leds shut off, but then after about 30 seconds, the leds dim up. its a very light dim and theyve never drained my battery completely, not til now that is.

i have leds in my footwells and those dont dim up, just my door leds

maybe it happends to most of us we just dont realize cus we never looked.
