glove box light

My glove box light is on all the time. I can see the light coming out of the top where it meets the Navi unit box. Anyone else have this problem? WTF is wrong with my G!

Jeff

The switch is probably defective just bring it to the dealer and they should fix it no charge.

I have 05 Coupe. My glove box light is on constantly when I turn the head lights. I didn't see the switch.

Jeff...

Did you buy a G35? Or a Honda Accord?

lol j/k

Just take her in like Glen said.
I've never heard anyone's G doing this, though.
Still, it should be a simple fix.

There is no switch for the glove box light. Stupid engineers didn't think of one. You could on the other hand install one yourself.

I already dealt with this problem. Took it into the dealership because it seemed my glovebox is a bit warped...they looked at other G's and said this seems to be somewhat normal...so what did they do? They cut a strip of felt lining and layed it near the edge...no more light.

By the way, it comes on with the headlights and off other wise. There is no switch.
