I had the same issue in my Eclipse. I assume that you bought the bulb at your local auto parts store. There is your first issue. 99% of the time, Autozone, Advanced Auto, etc. use generic bulbs, that "work on any car." The issue is the ground on the bulb. Because it is not designed specifically for your car, the wiring is backwards. You can try to turn the bulb around and re-install it, and if that doesn't fix your problem, buy from from on online source that is vehicle specific. If all else fails, say screw it and pull your fuse
Hope this was of some help.
