Glove Box Light Stays On?? I hope Im posting this in the right section, if not Im sorry.
Well the other night I was driving home and noticed the light from the glove box was shining through a small opening in it.
I opened and closed in countless times and it would stay off for a few seconds and then come back on. Is there any way to adjust how it closes? It stays on even when the car is turned off and locked. This might be the reason that sometimes my car hesitates to start. Any help would be nice.
Thanks.

My glove box door would droop a bit and not push in the switch far enough so the glove box light would stay on. I added a small round clear rubber drawer/cabinet-door bumper to the riser on the door that pushes in the switch. Now the switch gets pushed in far enough and the light stays off when the glove box door is closed.
Damn, I don't even have one of them..just though about that..lol
I would try shimming the part that pushes in that turns the light off..I'm thinking it's something similar to the one in the Center Console..
