Led dome light problem

So I installed a new led bulb in my dome light in my 89 4runner and it turned on for about 1-2 min. Then it started turning on and off till finally just turned off , so I put the old reg. bulb back in and not working ? , now when I turn the dome light switch on the clock and power mirrors don't work. Or when I turn off the key and turn it back on the clock resets to 1:00 every time , I'm not good with electrical stuff so before I take it to an electrical auto repair ($$) anyone know what could of happened ??

I would start with checking ALL your fuses, And unless you touched something the wrong way installing the bulb I wouldn't try it again if you do find blown fuses. Might be a defect in the LED but keep it simple start with your fuses and post your results
