Glove box light problem
My light was working perfectly fine. I pull out the bulb to replace it to an LED one and it didn't work. So I turn the bulb around and nothing. So I was like forget it, I put back the OEM bulb and now that doesn't work. Has anyone had this problem? If so what did you do? Any help will be appreciated.

Check to see of you're getting juice (power).

It gets 12V when you turn on the tails and gets ground when the glove box switch is triggered. Any other switch indicators off?

As in the trunk or doors? When I open the door the dome and the door light turns on. Do you happen to know where the fuse is? Where else can I check?

You have to have the headlights on for the glovebox light to turn on.

^^ Exactly!!
I had the same problem. It took me a while to figure out the light only works when you switch on the parking lights/headlights.
