Blinking LED's after install

Ok so finally after one blown fuse got done with the install. It looks great.

Only issue is the LED's I used in the footwells blink. They fade on and off. All the other ones work perfectly.

Any ideas why? Any fix?

Have you checked the connection cables? Happened to me on one of my rear footwell LEDs when I was installing them, turned out that I had just not fully plugged in the connector to the housing.

Good luck! looks great when finished btw, one of my favourite mods so far!

Maybe your brand leds do not like to be dimmed. Try on full brightness setting.

I had the same issue, but most of the time it was ok for me, cuz the blink beat follows my music

So it turns out that they can't be on the dim setting. Turn them all the way up with switch in the center sunglass holder/dome light. Now my only problem is the rear doorlights stay on all the time even with the door closed...I see the light under the door

Just replied to another thread - both of the bulbs on the rear door can NOT be both LED's.

At least one of the bulbs has to be the original manufacturer bulb and the other can be an LED.

I ended up using the standard bulb in the red-lensed holder and the LED on the bottom.
