Glovebox light always on...

Hi All,

I have noticed that my glovebox light stays on all the time, even when the glovebox is closed (I know you must think I have x-ray vision....but I can see thru the edges that its still lit up). I'm pretty sure this is not supposed to be, as the light would burn out way faster this way. Anyone have any ideas to get that to get working correctly?

certain lights in the car are always on...

change them out with leds so they don't use up any power

The glovebox light is tied to the parking lights of the car.

Open the box at night and turn the cars headlamps on and off and it should go on and off

The glovebox light should not be on when it's closed...

Here's the TSB along with the fix (I know it says 05-06, but it's the same for all years) -
