Time to resurrect this thread and update the info.

Four years ago, I installed the following LED lights in my new TL:

Doors: 2 X 6LED Blue WLED-B6 (194)
Domes: 4 X 4LED White WLED-W4 (194)

...which I bought from superbrightleds.com .

I noticed a few weeks ago that the blues on the driver's door were working intermittently and the passenger door not at all.

One of the front domes was out and the other was flickering. One of the back domes was out also.

I replaced the white dome lights with the OEMs that I had saved. I had a spare, new blue LED so I put that in the passenger door and it worked fine.

I did some work on the driver's door bulb and got it to work. The tangs in the socket were bent (from the factory).

Interestingly, the leds don't go out all at once. You can lose or or two on the same bulb and they just get dimmer.

Also noted: the fuse you will blow screwing around with these sockets is #6, brown, 7.5 Amp. It is on the bottom row next to the yellow 20Amp fuse. You can buy a 6 pack of them for about $2 at a parts store. They are ATM type mini fuses.

And, when you blow that fuse, it also disables the remote key fob. The lock switch will still work on the door, but the remote won't.

Actually, I have since discovered the new thread on this topic from January 2008 which Ron A has put in the 3G Garage so I am going to close this one and refer you to that one so that we can keep our discussions current and all in one place.

Many thanks to JLJL, Kennedy, and Ron A for collecting, organizing, and disseminating this info in a digestible format.
