Default Footwell LED flicker

I searched but I didn't find anything. So my footwell lights started flickering around 2 months ago and it is very annoying at night. Does anyone know why that can be? I used to have a blue LED strip wired up to there but took it off since it didn't flow with anything in my car.

Check the wiring. Especially where you tapped into for your blue led.
