LauraR Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 The car is a 04 ES330 and I found out that the glove box light will only work when the parking lights are turned on. Has anyone rewired the light so that it turns on when ever the glove box is open and without the need to turn on the parking lights? I would appreciate any info you have to offer. Thanks!!

SKperformance Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 easy mod take it to a stereo store to wire it up to a constant +12vdc so the switch runs the light only not the light relay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdonkersgoed Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I wonder why Lexus would only have the light come on when the parking lights are on? Are they trying to discourage you from rummaging through your glove box while driving? Weird . . . Regards, Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amf1932 Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I guess that Lexus figured you don't need this light during the daylight hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeiLtYmE Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Smart idea i think, i know plentyful occasions when my glove box was left open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdonkersgoed Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Personally, I could never leave something like my glovebox open. Little things like open cabinet doors and stuff bug me :P They msut be shut! :P I am weird, and a stickler for neatness and organization :P So, I guess I read the original post wrong. I guess I forgot that the parking lights are on when the headlights are on, so the glove box does indeed light up while driving at night . . .
