Glove box light issue

[Thomas Pxrry]

Recently I developed a glovebox light issue on my boxster 987 s

I Attempted to replace glove box light with led and now it doesn't work at all, even with the standard bulb is put back that worked before, nothing.

Attempted to swap with the footwell bulb and light housing, nothing

Following this when locking the car the horn would sound

So ... I Replaced the cable attached to the bulb holder part 99761265100 (glove box wiring harness). This includes a small metal switch that is pushed into a holder at the back of the glovebox

This solved half of the problem, The car horn no longer sounds when locking

However the light in the glovebox still is not working

Swapped it again with the working footwell light and still nothing

All of the other lights I replaced work perfectly.

As I am aware there is no fuse for this bulb

So how is it fixed. Even porsche themselves are confused????
