I don't think waiting had anything to do with it...it's spring now, so naturally the winter light would go off.

Eric, I have the electrical wiring manual. I will try to make some time to look in there and see if there is a schematic.

That would be great, Bart. If I could find the most likely places for either a short or a loose wire, I can do some exploring under the carpet. It might be under the emergency brake area, beneath the console. Maybe the previous owner spilled a drink there or something, causing corrosion.

That is definitely possible. If you put a tall cup in the SQUARE cup holder it can easily tip forward and spill all over this area.
I kind of have a quasi NO DRINKS ALLOWED in the VX, unless it is a bottle with a tight cap.
I am kinda anal about keeping my VX clean.

Yeah, that's what I figured you were going to attempt. I was thinking the same, but now that I have mine embedded in my wiring cluster cover, I love it there. I fits perfectly and was really easy. I just need to find some sort of thin plastic or rubber trim and it will look totally stock.
