The light in the trunk in my car hasn't worked since I got it - decided to change the bulb today. Pulled it out and the light wasn't connected to the wiring. Hooked it up and the light came right on. Got to wondering why it wasnt hooked up and thought I out to check the switch just in case the PO had disconnected it for running down the battery or something.
Can't find the switch that would turn it off when the trunk lid is closed. Any help on where it is located?
Lock the latch with your finger. There is a microswitch in the latch. Same as the engine cover, red arrow in the pic. The frunk has more covers so it is harder to see. Don't forget to open it again before you try to close the frunk.

Reason: spellin
The light turns itself off after a delay of a few seconds.
I put a video camera in the trunk to determine that it actually turns off.
That the light eventually went out wasn't much of a surprise as the wild party the trunk monkeys started after he closed the lid!!
