Glove box light

[steven.cox]

Thought the bulb had gone on the glove box light. Took the light out only to discover there are no wires connected to the spade fittings.

Had a feel around as best I can through the hole but can’t feel any loose wires

Any ideas?

Take the glove box out and look for the loose wire/s. There is a lot packed into the back of the dash so it is going to be fiddly. I think I have taken mine out before but not sure if it is held in with metal tabs that need bending or clips. Steve

Thanks Steve

I thought that might be the case. Is removing the glove box straightforward?

There are three screws visible along the bottom of the aperture when the glove box is open. One is for the retaining strap that wraps around the glovebox that helps hold it to the back of the dashboard. I'd start with that...
