[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 13889741, member: 9628"] Yes, the Body Lighting Module <<(I believe it is called) can keep voltage on a socket, it is not enough to light a incandescent bulb so there is minimal voltage drain, but it is enough voltage to light an LED. The simple fix is to install a CAN Bus LED which has a resistor built in and acts like a regular bulb in resistance, they work Great!! Here is a link to what I have............ [url=http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/miniature-wedge-base/194-can-bus-led-bulb-9-smd-led-wedge-base-tower/1128/]194 CAN Bus LED Bulb - 9 SMD LED Wedge Base Tower | Miniature Wedge Base LEDs | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs[/url] I used CAN Bus LED's where my LED's stayed lit (when they should not be lit) and have had no problems. Super Bright LED's offers CAN Bus LED's for all of the bulb locations on our GT500's except the fogs. As I mentioned above, the nice thing about the CAN Bus LED's.........the resistor is built into the LED circuit board so you don't have to butcher your wire harness and add resistors as with most other LED's that are on the market for sale. I hated the "dim lit LED" look, it made my car look like it had electrical issues when it was just the LED's. R [/QUOTE]
