Default trunk light
my 06 is 250 awd has been great to me, but just last week I realized when I opened the trunk that it was dark. no light came on so I could see.

is there a light suppose to turn on when you open the trunk?

if so, how do I turn it on?

if not, that just doesnt make sense...

There's one above in the trunk. Shouldn't be hard to see it and there's a switch next to the light. Just flip the switch to turn it on.
