Hello, I am a noob with electrician work. Recently, I replaced a light fixture in my bathroom and installed LED bulbs. There was no ground wire available and the wiring in our home is very old.

The bulbs burn out days after being installed and when I turn the lights off, the bulbs that are burned out glow for a few minutes. Could installing a ground resolve this? Are the bulbs receiving too much current?

Thanks.
