Stelcom66 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Does anyone know where the hatch light switch is on a 2002 Forester? The only thing(s) I could find that might be it are two small plastic parts on each side, feels like held into position by springs. When my hatch opens, the light doesn't turn on, but does with the switch on the light itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Does the door open light on the dash come on when the hatch is open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelcom66 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Good question - I just checked. It does not, it does when I open other doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelcom66 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 I found out that the switch is integrated within the latch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forester2002s Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I have the same problem - my hatch latch-switch doesn't activate the 'door-open' warning lamp. If you figure out how to get into the latch-mechanism easily, please let us know. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
