Golf, from m.y.. 1985
SUBJECT:

Trunk light does not come on



Trunk lights that don't come on may be a result of the trunk light switch plunger position. Trunk light switches are manually locked in the "OFF" position during assembly/shipping.
^ Unlock the switch during the pre-delivery inspection.

^ Closing the hatch with too much force can also place the switch in the locked position.

Advise the customer of this possibility if you find trunk light switches in the locked position.
