    have you checked the little push button that turns the light on and off?

    just follow the driver's side boot hinge and you'll find it

    ..had the same problem and i found out that the plug came off the switch =/

    remeber the switch is a switching ground so if the screw holding it in is loose this will also cause it not to work
