Default How to change the glove box light

My glove box light does not illuminate. It's not obvious (to me) how to remove the lens to get to the bulb. Before I break it or remove the whole box unnecessarily can someone advise the procedure?

Just take your fingers and pull it down from the corner. It just pops in place. Mine wasn't working either and it took a bit to figure out why. There are actually 2 wire connectors. One of my connectors was unplugged and laying in the hole.

Search and download the service manual, it has almost everything. This is a snip from it.

Make sure it is not the plunger sticking. Mine was, and just a couple of toothpicks of petroleum jelly fixed it great!

The glove box light is operational only when the ignition is on
