Interior LEDs dim and strobing

[Thompsju]

Trying to replace my interiors with LEDs.

The footwell worked.

The dome/map lights don't work, as in no light, power, nothing.

The glove box strobed/flickered and was very dim, until it blew a fuse.

I replaced the fuse now it strobes.

Bigger fuse? Smaller fuse?

What do?

Do not go to a bigger fuse, you will burn out wires.

Have you flipped the bulbs around, maybe the polarity is backwards.

 

[Thompsju]

Yeah, I tried that.

The results I get are "doesn't work", flipped around "dim strobe".

Thought you ran away

Key the car on and then try the bulbs.

Do you have resistors wired in as well? Decent LEDs have rewired resistors, births cheapos work just as well if you add your own. LEDs have very low resistance, so you'll keep blowing fuses unless you add resistors.

They are "DynamicDiodes", from what they cost, there better not need any extra work.
