Looking for location of the trunk light switch for a 2016 Legacy. The trunk light no longer comes on when you open the trunk and when the trunk is open it does not display so on the dash. Trunk bulb has been removed and tested, the bulb works fine
 
Problem solved, The SM has an electrical schematic that shows how the circuit is wired. Trunk latch tells body ECM trunk is open, Body ECM turns on trunk light. Found the trunk latch switch to be working fine. The wire that comes from the body ECM to the switch which gets grounded with the trunk latch open was broken in the trunk wiring harness. Where the harness exits the body and enters the trunk lid is an area of high flex. Found 2 failed wires and another about to fail wire. Soldered and heat shrunk the 3 wires and re-wrapped the harness. Trunk light working as well as dash displays trunk open at appropriate time.
