Underhood Light

Can someone please tell me the Part Number for the UNDERHOOD LIGHT BULB?

The underhood light is not working. Tried changing the plug and made sure the harness near the front of the hood was connected to the hood light. Still will not work. Any suggestions? Fuses? Which fuses?

Thanks,
Adam

Pull connector apart, they get corroded sometimes. Check that first

(as long as bulb is ok!!)

Did it work before? Did you buy the car new or used?

Plug the lamp cable directly into the battery using jumper wires; if the light doesn't work the tilt switch, bulb or hood wiring is bad. If it does work then the fuse could be bad.
