Trunk light stays on

I've been dealing with electrical draws that have left me with a dead battery stranded several times in the past month. After replacing a faulty power antenna, my problem seemed solved.

However, I just noticed today that my trunk light does not appear to go out when I shut the trunk. Is there an easy way to disable this lamp so that it won't drain the battery overnight?

Thanks in advance

The easiest thing to do is just remove the bulb. It will be hot, so take appropriate measures-gloves, handkerchief, etc...

you could even pop out the switch, disconnet the wire(s)/ tape up then pop back in the switch for looks if you like

I have the exact OPPOSITE problem: my trunk-light will NOT illuminate!!!



I plan to fix this when Susanto I., Scott C. and I install my ICE components, in the next few weeks.
