Trunk Light Off

Hello folks!!

I'm new to this forum and this is my first post

I recently bought a Yaris 08 after a devastating crash with my 98 Corolla but unfortunately I've found a lot of stuff wrong my Yaris and now I need to start repairing one at a time

Anyways! I'm trying to fix the trunk light as I've changed the light bulb housing and the bulb itself without success, does anyone have a fuse box diagram for a 3dr vitz 08'? :) also if anyone has a full diagram of the connection between the bulb and the central system I'd appreciate it! So far I've checked if the computer detects if I open the door and it does, the problem is that it doesn't light up the trunk bulb 😕

Thank you!!

I have the wiring diagrams for the Vitz, but only in Japanese and on paper which makes it a bit more of a hassle.

For the trunk light though there is a switch within the latch that grounds the wire from the latch to the bulb to complete the connection when the trunk is open. If you have +12 on the other wire, then you need to check for continuity between the bulb's ground wire and chassis ground and work your way to the latch.

You're on fire Scott �� I always see your name on different posts I've visited! It's awesome to have such a Yaris fan amongst us.

Ok so I'm checking the trunk wires and have an orange and a white cable, which one is the ground and which one is the bulbs ground? ��
