    Hi new owner here, my rear glove box won't open with the switch. When I picked up my 360 Spider my salesman told me this was a problem with this model. Does anyone know of a solution, or a method for opening the compartment to inspect the switch?

    I have read the manual which simply tells you how to open it using the console switch.

    Thanks for any advice.

    My 430 used to do this. I found that lightly pushing in on the box and rocking the switch would cause it to open after a few seconds

    Mine does it too...sometimes I just push the rear box in a bit, then hit the switch and it opens really slowly.

    Now I just keep mine open all the time.

    I do not mean this in a negative way at all - just checking the basics. You have the car power on when you hit the switch to open the rear glove box? My car is not with me right now but I recall that you have to have the power on for these buttons to work.

    Also, your gas cap button is working ok (being in the same location)?

    Yes I tried to open it with the car running. Everything else, gas cap, hood release, and top
    works fine. My salesman told me the rear glove box was a problem so I posted my question with the hope that other owners might have resolved this issue.

    My 360 Spider is great but I like to have everything working on my vehicles. Thanks for your
    input, and I never take any offered help in a negative way.

    Mine did that too occasionally. If it got stuck closed, I put something flat (like a thin comb) in the gap at the top and gently pried on it while pushing the switch that opens it.
