Help please?! Navigation LED's?

I have a 05 Acura TL and so my climate control leds we're out so I replaced them I ended up replacing all of them and they worked flawelessy! But then the next day one of them went out maybe because of being loose so I opened it up and tried adjusting it and also the car was on with the headlights on as I turned the led all of them went out. I then turned the car off for awhile but when I turn the headlights on the clitmate control leds come on for a few seconds but are very dim then die out. Please help anyone?

Remove the LED that you inserted last (one that might caused the problem). Also there might be a fuse. I think you might shorted it out (if I understood correctly, lights were on when you inserted the led) .

According to manual from 2007-2008, look for fuse #4

Confused

They come on but aren't as bright as they are suppose to be they are slot dimmer

Okay so they are suppose to be this bright these are the less I replaced in the speedometers outer assembly

And like a few mins later they fade out But I did take them all out and test each of them and hey work fine but when I put them back in they work but they are dimmer and then they fade out. I checked all the fuses but still nothing the fuses are all good
