My glovebox light does not work, never noticed it didnt until recently...I know it used to!

I've just put a new white LED bulb in it, i've checked the bulb and that works, the holder works (plugged it into the boot light connectors), the switch feels fine and moves freely.

I cannot see any blown fuses in the fusebox under the dash, is there a particular one for this or is it on a circuit with other things? The only other thing that does not work is the clock light but the clock works fine apart from not illuminating...

What else should I be looking at you kind people?
 
Check the wires have not fallen off, its two daft little pieces of metal with some spade connectors on them. Also, try bending the metal contacts so that they press into the lamp harder, clean up the contact surface a little too, they get damp and corrode a bit.

LED lamp, it will have polarity, did you put it in the right way round as being a festoon lamp it could go in either way.
 
Yeah i've checked the wires to the lamp and the switch, i've had both out to check for any damage.

I have also tried the bulbs both ways and swapped the + & - wires round....

Lost now lol
