• Interior light circuit failure traced to the glove box switch

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and terminal type before installation. This switch uses a female connector, male blade terminals, and a 2-terminal layout, so matching the harness connection is important for proper fitment. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, and model before replacing the original glove box light switch.
