    Went into the truck last night and noticed all three are out. About to go out there and check but I’m suspecting a fuse.

    Anybody else running Meso LED’s ever have a problem like that? Blowing fuses or whatever?

    It might seem Capt Obvious, but is your dome switch in the right spot? It is easy to bump to Off.

    I'm not certain on @MESO 's power draw, but LEDs are usually lower current than incandescent.

    Yeah, Had the @MESO red dome lights. Lasted about a year and then dead. Unfortunate. No fuse problems.

    First thing that occurred to me. Wasn’t it.

    That’s why I asked. I know LED’s supposedly have less draw.

    Good to know it isn't a common issue. Thank you guys.

    When you say "dead" is the entire light off, or just some LEDS?

    Dome or map lights? My dome light had issues but I think it ended up being a whonky switch that's right next to the dome.

    Got it taken care of. 7.5 amp
    Fuse under the driver’s side dash. Box is just in front of the hood release and a pain in the ass to get to.

    yes it’s marked dome. It’s like the (whoops!) fourth one up on the far right row (towards the passenger).

    Thanks for the follow-up. Bought the red dome light about 2 years ago. Loved it while it was working. LEDs started to die or functioning intermittently. Eventually the whole thing stopped working after about a year. Replaced with a shitty, dim LED replacement. Not dissing, are the new ones more reliable? Would love to have a fully functional @MESO red dome again.

    Keep in mind that fuses don’t just blow for fun. You may want to to take a look at the backside of the light boards as well as any other exposed wiring to try and diagnose why the fuse blew.
