Hello everyone so i have a little problem with my e46 the trunk warning light in the dashboard is always on. So i googled the problem and everyone said is the cables at the trunk i did check the cables and wich one was a bad i rewired but the light still comes up. The trunk works perfectly. What could be the problem what should i check next?

Trunk wiring is bad. Common problem. The wires break in the hinge inside the rubber bellows and short out against each other. You probably have some non-functioning lights on your trunk as well.

I checked those in the rubber and there are okay, wich were a bit bad i rewired. And the lights are working properly
