I would check the bulb and socket first. It is a spring action that holds the bulb in place and sometimes bulbs that are about to fail will go on and off.

If everything there is okay there, then it is likely the trunk microswitch (there was a TSB for bad switches back in 2000).

I'll hit up the auto parts store tomorrow for a new bulb... I tried just wiggling the socket/spring.... but no luck. Where is the trunk micro switch located at?

Watch out that bulb once it has been on for a while. It is very hot. I burned my finger last time when I touch it.
