After replacing the boot light bulb, it still wouldn't work. I have been trying to trace the fault, but have questions. I don't see
any switch that controls it similar to a door switch. Is it wired into the light system? What am I not seeing?
Thanks, Tom

Tom, it's switch like no other and is located where your right trunk hinge will contract it when closed. Check the wire coming into it for power and give it a clean with some spray. It sets next to the tank and if you remove the panel you can see it right away.
