Bonnet light

Mines not working, changed the bulb still nothing???

The boot light comes on when the bonnet is open so dont think its a break in the circuit, tried the connectors both way round still nothing, is there a fuse for the bonnet light?

Did wonder :D

Don't really know much about your problem, never had a bonnet light.
Have you checked the bonnet switch ?

I had one on my 8v, just changed bulb and switched headlights on and it worked. A bit pointless though in the end as it didn't really illuminate much lol.
