Hi there my centre storage light stays on for a long time after opening it only when the car is switched off and the car cuts the power to save battery drain does the light go out, the little spring switch is still intact as is the peg to push the button has anyone any idea why it won't go out ?
Cheers
Matt

Thanks for the reply and nothing when I press it all the way in does it fade or switch off straight away ?

Sounds like your switch is knackered for some reason or other so the light is probably on the the time the car is unlocked.
