Default Help: Hatch/Trunk Light NOT Working

So I went to the grocery store tonight, opened the hatch and noticed my hatch/trunk light wasn't working. I tried a new bulb, but that didn't work either.
:a:
Any suggestions? I hate the white, plastic, housing sitting on my desk.

Thanks guys.

They're not, huh? I just packed 9 bags of groceries. And last week I swallowed a 27" TV still in the box. Versatile hatchback!

But I digress... back to le topic.

I wish it were that simple of a fix..

I found a lead, but I don't think it will help much.

I know on mine the wire and plug that lead into the light itself had poped out somehow. All I did was remove the whole unit, then pop the plug back in.

I fit a Sony Wega 32" TV in the box back there. Couldn't close the hatch though

The light is working 1 out of 3 times. Annoying.
