Driver side puddle light not working.

[V01]

I was installing leds and did something to the driverside puddle light. All other lights are working. No blown fuses. Tried different bulbs.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you try reversing the bulb in the socket? Check plug for voltage.

This, try flipping the bulb around

What they said! it does matter which way the plug goes in...even though it does fit both ways!

Yeah, i tried that. I think i shorted something when i was removing the stock bulb. Fuse is ok though. the passenger door works too.

put the working passenger light on the drivers side to be sure the light isn't bad

I tried a couple different lights and the OEM that was originally in there. None of them are working.

This just happened to me too. I've had my car a few weeks and tonight I was installing the led's. Front passenger door puddle light wasn't working. Figured the bulb was just burned out. Tried a known, good working bulb and didn't work. Swapped the whole light housing with the rear passenger door and still nothing. Would love to know what I can do to fix it.

This happened to my rear passenger door, anybody find a solution? It's definitely a short somewhere but I can't find it...

This happens on just about all cars. I always fixed it by simply getting out of the car. Locking it, unlocking it. Entering and they are reset/work.

Nope didn't work

After a couple of attempts, this worked. All lights on and bright!

This happened to me too when I installed mine. Finally was just frustrated and gave up for a few days and then they fixed themselves. Very strange, but it does work!

Confirmed, they fix themselves! Just installed mine last night, the last one didn’t work. But this morning everything is working perfectly!

Just did the interior led swap and had the same thing happen! First door didn't work, finished the rest and they all worked great. Jumped on here to search for this issue and went back out after reading to see. Everything working as it should.

The puddle light circuitry automatically turns off after some period of time. Close and then open the door (with or without the light installed, don't short the wires) and you will find things should be working again. BTDT.
