This won't help with your real question but I have to ask how do you know this? Mine not only goes off but I believe it times out if the trunk is left open too long.

had changed to led (a flat panel with about 8 little leds). would never go off. took that out and put the factory bulb in .....everything fine. took that out and put a plug in led bulb......everything fine.......??

I changed my trunk light to a LED ( along with other interior lights all on the same circuit). Bulb stop working. Took it to Lexus and they said they fixed a broken wire. Now the light stays on all of the time. Took it back to Lexus and they claim the LED shorted the wiring harness. Now they won't cove anything electrical in the car until I pay them $1300.00 to replace the harness, and another $1000.00 to change the LED's back to factory bulbs.

After years of Acura and recently MB, kinda turns me off. I like the car and put LED's in it to give me more light and Lexus claims the LED's caused the problem
