electrical big question

Alright, so I go and change the ignition light bulb to an led about 5 minutes ago. All was going well and somehow when i was putting it in i saw/heard a pop with some smoke. Needless to say, the light still lit so i proceeded to install it.

NOW the ignition light and dome light will not shut off when i close the door and wait (they usually go off after a few seconds or so)...


So now my question is...what device tells the car to cut electricity to the ignition and dome light bulbs after a few seconds?


My dad suggested a thermal sensor that cut power when the bulbs reached a certain temp (led's don't get hot)...

Thank you
