Default Dome Leds Has This Happen 2 U???

Thanks guys who responed to the last post i made on my door ding,, it was fixed with PDR and looks brand spanking new! anyway i bought some leds from that guy everybody uses on ebay and i put 3 in the front where the sunglass holder is, now here is the strange part, they all work and look nice and bright onbut when i shut the car off ONLY the center blub lights up, when i open the door they all light up and when i turn it on myself they all come on, so why when i come close to the car or shut off the car only one led lights up, im using those super bright white leds this is the blub i put in > 168 194 1W High Power LED (Xenon White) Wedge Bulb from warden_jp2002 Anybody have a clue?

I believe that's completely normal. I have LED dome lights in my car and they behave the same way also. When you turn off the ignition, the middle LED in the front dome light and only one LED from the rear dome will be on. When you open the door, all of them will come on. I use the 5 refracter bulbs. It just seems a little more even in terms of light dispersion.

It has nothing to do with the LED. It is the dome lights normal function. Mine does the exact same thing but have not replaced any bulbs inside the car.
