So, had the rear light for the cargo area set to come on when the doors opened. The hatch never tripped the light, only the back doors. Except today. I accidentally let the hatch fly all the way up and bounced before I could regain composer. Now, the light goes on when the hatch is closed and off when open! My first thought is plug reversed, but would think it be like the rest and go on one way.

How does one even reach the plug? I have all the trim off, so that's out of the way.

Any ideas how to correct this?

Thank y'all so very much in advance!
