So it turns off autometically when the hatch is locked, then why the hell they have an "on/off" switch, and "off" is the default?

i think by having a switch scion can say it's a stock feature. so they can count it as part of the luxury style elements. kinda like saying "yeah, all those other cars in this class has a stock trunk light, but WE have a switch to turn it off and on"

I didn't know that it automatically cut off when you shut the hatch, I figured it stayed on... thus the switch.

it would drain your battery if it was on...over a long period of time. The switch is there for if you want it on when the hatch is open.

Ditto. I read the entire manual the day I got the car. (When I picked it up we immediately went ot my grandmother's house out of state. I had nothing else to do). I apparently forgot about the light until I noticed it in the trunk one day.

If only I could stumble upon a light in the glove compartment...
