Pull out interior fuse?

When I was reading this thread (https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98771) is it necessary to pull out all the fuse such as the interior light? Will it do any harm if I don't pull out the fuse? Does anyone know if I have to pull out the fuse while installing the LEDs inside the domes, door lights, reverse light, and license plate light? Thank you!

lmao, I replace them all the time, even with the lights on(some lights are polarized and you cannot tell if they are working without having the power there; they will only light up if you insert accordingly.)

For some reason, my girl's TL-S's license plate light keeps blinking. The 2nd light has been replaced, and they keep screwing up. They are 5W-LED by SuperBrightLEDS.com

The lights are great, but the same one keeps screwing up. Sorry to hijack the thread, but is there a problem with the wiring(or maybe a bad fuse)? I've replaced the bulb twice now, and they are still doing the same thing. I havn't messed with the wires at all, just pop and swap.

Anyways, just pull the bulb out... it's like changing a bulb in your room, keep the power on to see if the new bulb is working. Wouldn't it be less efficient to remove the fuse, plug it back in, check the light... if it doesn't work, remove the fuse, replace bulb, replace fuse....

No need to pull fuses.

Be-in my TL - The LED is coming loose, thats why it blinks and stuff. Stick another one in and use some silicone to seal it so it doesnt rock loose.

be-in..... it flashes on one side because the resistance built up on the line is no good to the other i believe the line the bulbs are plugged into is parallel so you need something with less resistance.
