Default problems after installing led dome light

hey guys, I am brand new on here and have question about led dome light. (sorry if already mentioned in another thread) I have 06 fx4 screw and purchased the replacement led's for map lights and dome from vled's after reading others post. well after replacing old bulb with a 6k 4 led festoon dome light my key fob doesnt seem to want to work properly when trying to lock or unlock the doors. sometimes will work right away sometimes it doesnt. If it does unlock most of the time the rear doors wont unlock with a double click. when doors are closed and dome light goes off, lock button seems to work fine. please help.
p.s tried multiple new festoon bulbs and each one does the same thing. As soon as i put the stock bulb back in works fine again.
