Default Interior LED Lights Problem

Purchased interior led lights for map lights and dome and they only work if I have the key in ignition turned to accessory where as the original light bulbs it did not matter.

Maybe it's a certain kind of LED

Did you buy the CANBUS compatible bulbs? I think you need a CANBUS for the rear "Cargo Light" and a regular for the front/soundbar lights.
