so it was a while ago since i have ordered some green led's for the step/courtesy lights and i replaced them, what happened was that when i was doing that i put an led the opposite way of polarization and initially i thought a fuse got burned, so i checked all the fuses they were ok, and found the courtesy fuse right behind the fire extinguisher it is a glass fuse, i replaced it with a new one and found that one of the leds is getting the fuse burned so i just removed all courtesy lights and ordered new led's for them, now yesterday i installed them I noticed something really strange, that when all doors are closed the turn on, and when i open a door they turn off, i thought it might be a fuse polarization or some thing so i pulled the fuse and drive for a mile and noticed that the dash indicates a door is open but it was dim, i put back the fuse and the dim indicator of open door in the dash was gone but still the courtesy is acting the other way, I disconnected the negative terminal of the battery before i go to bed hoping it will reset the ecu!

exactly! i tried disconnect and connect the fuse while the doors are closed, maybe that triggered the switch to act in reverse, but nothing really changed.
I really like them were they illuminate while driving, but the down side is that they stay on even when the engine is off.
