I bought some '194 (T10) Wedge 6 LED Light Color - Green'. Wanted to change the license plate lights on my dragon to green. As soon as I plug either one it, pop go's the fuse. Socket and circuit is good since the regular bulb works fine. Of course it is a Saturday and LEDLights dot com ain't there. Any clues from within the group?

well, you know, that is a good question. There are no markings what soever on these, so who knows

Some LEDs contact are not folded the correct way. Check how the contacts are making their connection and they should only fold over on one side of the fitting, if there are contacts on both sides then there is your problem
