Troubleshooting Glove box Light

[shanemasters1]

I have had my q45 since 1995. I purchased it with 30k miles on it and it has been stored indoors since day 1. I am now in the process of restoring it back to new, with a few additional performance mods. While I have it apart and up on the lift I am correcting everything I see no matter how big or small. With that being said I am attempting to trouble shoot the glove box light not working. I have checked continuity on the glove box switch. I have also checked for voltage at the wiring harness connection to the light on the side of the glove box next to the switch (no voltage). I have checked all of these with the car in the "on" position in the off chance that the glove box light only works when the car is "on". I have read the fsm at length and do not see a next logical place to check. I have checked the interior fuse box and all looks well there. All of the other interior lighting is functioning properly. The only light inop is the glove box. I still have to finish the window switch lights and then the light part of the rehab will be complete.

any suggestions would be helpful.

thanks

Try turning your headlights on.

Try turning your headlights on.

That should do it!
