found out the trunk light switch wasnt shutting off the trunk light.

Don't feel duh all by yourself...I once connected the trunk light connectors backwards, which kept it on all the time, even with the lid closed and the plunger full in (I was doing a lot of work on the antenna and sub woofer, didn't want to drain the battery!).
