  1. I have literally just come on here to search for this exact problem on my MK3 Galaxy with panoramic roof. I was wanting to replace all the interior lights with LED's for the nice white light rather than the standard more orange white colour. I had replaced the boot/trunk loading lights, the second and third row wedge base bulbs (inc the map reading lights in each unit) and noticed the faint glow when the lights were supposed to be off. They switch on and off fine but on the door activated setting they never fully go off and I was wondering why, this thread answered that question. Although I did also notice another problem. While I was replacing the front Festoon type bulbs and the two wedge base map bulbs I noticed all the interior lights stopped working i.e all the roof lights (inc map lights and vanity mirror lights) and footwell lights but also the drivers door module no longer works at all neither does it illuminate in the dark. I'm assuming I've blown a fuse but as it's dark now and I also found out the fuse box under the glove box uses them damn mini blade fuses (which I have none of handy) I gave up and came on here trying to find out what had happened. Can you please let me know which fuse I have blown to cause the door module to not work or illuminate and is it indeed the 10A mini blade fuse shown in the manual (F17)? Also why does fitting an LED the wrong way round in the front light unit affect the drivers door module and why would fitting a LED light bulb the wrong way round fuse anything to start with? I had to swap the bulbs in the rear seats a few times to get the polarity right but it didn't blow anything till I got the the front light unit.
