    Trying to change all my interior festoon bulbs to LED. When I was installing the second map light it wouldn't turn on so I tried a different LED that also didnt work. I checked the 10a fuse and it was blown. Any ideas as to why? I did have the door open and car had just been driven.

    Not unheard of that interior LEDs can cause fuse problems.
    Did you google the issue for your car model?

    I got it sorted, disconnected negative battery terminal and replaced the fuse then installed all the lights and connected everything back up all working fine. They're festoon style lights and I read that they can short out easily.
