theres a small wire clip that is behind the glove box and in some it can get water on it and it will cause that. also look for the sensor/pin for the light and check the fuses

The switch inside the glovebox is totally made of plastic. I broke mine when I tried to overstuff the box. Easy to remove and unplug.
