Led interior lights issue
Hi everyone,
I changed the two roof lights in my 2014 Toyota Innova to 5W LED bulbs. They worked fine initially, but suddenly all interior lights stopped working. The high-beam and door-open indicators on the dashboard also stopped working.
I found that a fuse had blown. The same issue happened once before, after installing LEDs.
The replacement LEDs also have slight blinking, so I’m planning to switch back to the original halogen bulbs.
My questions:
● Can LED bulbs cause fuses to blow?
● Could my car’s small battery be the reason?
● Is it better to stick with the original halogen bulbs?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
