Light should go OFF when the lid is CLOSED. There is a switch for the engine light on the engine lid lock.
That switch controls the light in the engine compartment ONLY! no other lights in the car.
There is also a switch in the front trunk (frunk) that controls the frunk light, ONLY the frunk light, no other lights in the car.
No other switches in the car control the frunk or engine compartment lights. The frunk and engine compartment switches control no other lights in the car.
There are other sequences of events that will cause some or all of the lights and computer controls to be activated or deactivated. I listed some of them in post #11. Of the ones listed only #3 will have any effect on your engine compartment light.
That light should be controlled by the switch on the engine compartment latch. That switch can be seen in the pic posted in post #11.
PS
You can run a cord for the trickle charger to the battery from the wiper side of the frunk lid and close the lid without pinching anything. The battery is not in the sealed part of the frunk.
