Exclamation Dome light not turning on

Has anyone had this problem my interior dome light, visor mirror light, puddle lights aren't turning on.
Also when I fill up it takes a while for it to show that it's full
Does any one know a solution?
Thank you in advance!!

Did you check your fuse?

Did you hit the switch on the headliner that turns off the dome lights? Seems basic, but Ive done it a few times.

As for the fuses, check the manual, I think its on the right side of the engine bay. Not 100% sure

Sounds like your fuse. You can also reverse the polarity of the leds

I had the same problem after installing LEDs all over. Check the fuse box by the battery it should be fuse number 9 if i'm not mistaking. That's the fuse that burned out on me.

need to check the polarity of LED.
Install back the original one on either any of them to see if it works.

oh man you burnt your wiring up! jk but i think the fuse is under the hood, should say like dome.. maybe a 15A fuse. swap one from like the horn real quick or any other known good fuse and place it into the dome one and see what happens. its also possible you got some bad LEDs
