AO1 light package, ashtray lamp

[340wedge]

I have everything on my AO1 light package working except the ash tray light.(71 Duster) I replaced the bulb and still no go. Since it has never worked, I am confused. Does the ignition need to be on for the ashtray lamp to work? Is there a switch that operates the lamp when you open and close the ashtray?

Got it!, the ashtray light works when the headlamps are on.

It should work off battery

Ha, I was going to ask you about that.
You really only need the ashtray light when it's dark and you have the lights on.

Hint: You can rotate that little canister so the light shines where you want it, and I even opened the hole slightly in mine so it includes the lighter in the light.
