i would also check all of your connections to make sure they are solid

ok i just changed the fuse and it still not working if there is a bad connection it should be before the wires split up because they all flash and then turn off ?
the weird thing is is that the volt tester lights up half a second after u flick the switch and stays on and dosent go off

i wonder if the LEDs are any good...
i'm really stumped on this one, it's a pretty odd situation. hopefully someone can help shed some light on this problem.

where did you get the leds? it might be some bad led bulbs. either that or bad connection, thats all i can think of.

for the floor lights i recommend going with led strips from oznium, you might want to look into that if thats not what you already have. flexible and can take a little beating.

are these led bulbs, do they have resistors, or are these neon tubes, do they have transformers?

did your cig lighter plug have more than just wires in it such as resistors? if so you would wanna get any internals out of the plug

yep that's probably what it was
the cig plug that came with your lights most likely had the resistors in it.
