Hope I can post non-ford stuff here. I have a 2011 Kia Soul and I installed LED domes lights in it because the small bulbs that were in there were so dim. A couple months after doing this, my horn no longer worked when I locked the car, normally it honked when I locked it. Finally today I took it in and the said they needed to replace the Body Control Module. Which they did. When I got back into the car, my dome light did not work. I thought maybe it had came lose or something. So I look at it when I get home and see this:



Its totally all burned out. It was working fine this morning. What are the chances the dealer did something to the wiring and messed it up?

Also come to find out they did NOT fix the problem, my horn is still not honking and they told me to bring the car back tomorrow, so I was debating bringing up this light issue, but then got to thinking..

What are the chances this thing could of caused all my problem, with all the fuses on factory wires there would be no way for this light to cause a problem with a module somewhere on the car would it?

This was a $30 dome light! And I just cant decide weather I should say anything or not.. It was working fine when I dropped off the car, but it sounds like they could of ripped the car apart because this was a 2 hour job to replace the module..

 

Is this still under warranty? did they charge you to replace the body control module?

If you answered Yes then No put the stock light back in and take it back.

If you answered No then yes sound like the body control module was not bad and they should replace the old one and refund your money, dealers swap parts and don't do much trouble shooting anymore.

My wife's Pontiac '09 with 25,130 miles had a mis-fire, I had her drop it off at the dealer being it was still under warranty, they call and said it had a bad plug and it needed new plugs and a coil pack $280 and it's not covered under warranty because the plugs are listed to be replaced at 25K miles. I picked up the car got a new set of plugs $12 and 20 minutes later had them changed and the car has ran fine ever since. There was nothing wrong with the coil pack
