Default Re: LED Back-UP Lights Find

Curiosity discovered this weekend..

Left the car running for the wife while I ran in to pick up pizza since the drive through was 4 cars deep. Backed into the spot facing away from the store..coming out I discovered the backup light was slightly lit. Just one. Getting back to the cabin (Bed and Breakfast weekend) I couldn't just say hmm.. so pulled the panels and after taking the glowing led out.. the other one lit. swapped positions between the two and same bulb noticed originally still lit up. Since I've got the dash out full time, I'm gussing there is a low voltage sent through at all times. Now the funny thing on that theory.. the front driving marker seems to break contact on occasion.. it won't throw the dash error though until lights are turned on. A few bumps down the road and it comes on - turning off the dash warning.
Gotta luv these cars and the oddities!
