Trunk light fuse location.
September 25, 2021 4:04 PM Subscribe
Hello;
I have a 2009 Hyundai Sonata. I thought the trunk light was burnt out, so I bought a new one-and it does not work. Anyhow, perhaps its the fuse, but I cane seem to find the location for is in the fuse box in the car.
I'm hoping someone here knows where it is.
Does anyone know?
Thanks :-)
Response by poster: Sorry, I wasn't clear what I am asking.
I know where the fuse box is. I just don't know which fuse is for the trunk light.
Thanks :-)

I googled "2009 Hyundai Sonata fuse ID" and this came up: https://fuse-box.info/hyundai/hyundai-sonata-nf-2005-2009-fuses-and-relay

Response by poster: Hi-Yes, I am getting a notification when trunk is open. I will check the on/off switch on that light later--never even thought of that one,lol.
Thanks :-)

Yeah, there's usually a fuse diagram on the inside of the fuse box, but not likely that there's a fuse for a single light.
You can usually tell if a fuse is blown by pulling it out and looking at it. There's a bit of wire that you can see, if the wire is broken/bunt-looking you have a blown fuse, if it looks rather normal like every other fuse then it's most likely fine. To really check you have to swap with a known good fuse of the same rating (probably printed on it somewhere and available at any auto store and you should have some in the glove-box just in case), or you need a multimeter or some other simple electric conductivity tester.

Yes the bulbs are now more durable than the fixtures, as I have replaced 3 including the trunk one on my Honda.
