Topic #80409 7 posts Started by jlspec
I'm trying to find the turnk light swith for my vert but I can't seem too. The light is in the center of the trunk right by the top switch but it doesn't have a switch light the ones found on the liftbacks. I'm just stupid or what??? Its driving me crazy.

as far as i know, theres no 'switch' of anysort. it should come on when the trunk it open, thats how its on my vert.
try replacing the bulb and/or make sure the connection is fine.

im my vert, the wire seems to be disconnected and i never really bothered to connect it.

Check and the wire is plug in, the bulb looks ok but I'll change that just to make sure. If it turns on when the trunk opens, then shouldn't there be a switch somewhere around the trunk for it too happen?

try to get the vert green book and look at the trunk assembly, you should be able to confirm if theres a switch somewhere or not
