That is the luggage compartment light switch connector. If your vehicle has a factory alarm system, this is an open connection.

As for the fluid light, yes, it could be a faulty or stuck switch.

My spyder has the factory alarm, but does not have that connector...

Trunk light

^^^^It is not the trunk light connector^^^

vvv This is what the trunk light connector looks like. vvv

I can confirm it's not the trunk light connector the light still comes on when you open the trunk. But it could be the alarm switch my car is equipped with it. It goes off sometimes if the doors are locked but I use the key to open the trunk. possibly something up with that. Thanks for the feedback everybody!

Coincidently, where is that switch located?

Thanks for your help! Must say I really admire your spyder it has a great look.

The FSM only lists a single, one-wire, black connector in that area and says it is for the luggage compartment light switch and is only used when the vehicle is not equipped with a factory alarm system, hence "open connection". The reason your light still works with this connector unplugged is because you have a switch integrated into the lock cylinder, the electrical connector for which is the two-wire black plug @spyderdrifter pictured above.

Disconnect the battery and unplug the two-wire black connector. Check continuity between pin 2 (red wire with green stripe) with the single-wire black connector. You will see zero resistance (or hear your meter beep) meaning the two wires are on the same circuit.

Then after reconnecting the battery, knowing that all this switch is doing is grounding the circuit to turn the light on, you can play with it a little and:

• Unplug the two-wire black connector and connect the terminal in the single-wire black connector to ground and the light will come on.

OR...

• Unplug the two-wire black connector and connect the terminal in the single-wire black connector to pin 1 (black wire) of the two-wire black connector and the light will come on.
