Mac996t said:Did you have either the bonnet or engine cover open while checking the glove box lamp. Our car are strange in that the front boot lamp, engine bay light and glove box light all work together so they all come on if any of the three are open,
This means if you leave one of them open all three will stay on, but the cleaver car turns them off after about 45 mins so you don't flatten the battery!
deMort said:You need to drop the glove box to get at the switch .. it's on the right side of the box .
From memory you can just about get a finger to it but basically you need to remove the box and test / replace it .
Amp meter on a battery neg lead and read off after 1 hour to see if you have a discharge .
