Dome Light LED
Bought some LED replacements for my dome lights at autozone for my 2007 JK. Last night I was walking past the jeep and noticed a slight glow coming from both of the dome lights. i since pulled them out and put the stock ones back in but thought that was really weird. Anyone else seen this? I do currently have a bunch of issues I'm dealing with so it might be related. horn doesn't work, and just recently the jeep died while driving and will not restart, i have no power to the OBD port so may have PCM or TPIM issues.

I didn't experience that exact same thing, but in general have had odd results with LED dome lights. My '13 didn't like LEDs in the dome. With them installed, the map lights on my rear view mirror would stay on constantly. IIRC, it was with the LED in the front dome on my 4dr, and it was fine with the LED in the rear dome. 2 different buddies with '14s has zero issues with the same bulbs. I couldn't stand having one dome with LED and one not, and didn't like the idea of removing the map lights, so I just left both domes with factory bulbs.

From what i have read its a Canbus issue and you need to buy a Canbus LED bulb for the rear dome since you have a 4 door. Search google and you will get a bunch of hits but here is a link that should help https://www.tapatalk.com/topic/55828...ior-light-kits.
