It's in the rear door handle - skoosh some WD40 around inside the back panel might sort it.

If you jiggle or lightly tap the rear tailgate latch when the boots up, the light should come back on..
There is some sort of negative earth switch in the boot release mechanism... :-k

I agree with Dandy about the WD40, but ideally the contact needs cleaning.
