The operational principles of the glove box light bulb

Glove compartment lighting is an electrical (or electronic) system that illuminates the space in the glove compartment, which is usually located on the right side of the dashboard, opposite the passenger seat. Usually, the lighting is turned on automatically when you open the glove compartment lid or when the parking lights of the car are turned on. The lamp expands the visibility of the contents of the glove compartment.

If a glove compartment light breaks, the most common cause is the bulb holder melting. To replace a burnt out HELLA brand Bulb, glove box light, there is a possibility of regular access to the base. The most common for this installation site are incandescent and LED lamps.
