Default Dome and Map Light Problem

My dome and map lights will not go off when the car is running.
I recently replaced my interior bulbs with Blue LEDs and installed a pod with gauges. No matter how long I leave the car run the lights stay on and no the switch is not on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. jwcej@msn.com
Thanks,

The LED was grounded out in the dome light. Fixed it and everything works fine and map and dome lights go off when car is running.
