Well still not working have to trace wires and see what's up
The black wire should have 12 volts, and the white wire should be ground. If you put a volt meter between the two and it reads 12 volts, the wires are fine. Try running a temporary jumper from one of the wires going to the switch to the other wire going into the switch. If the light comes on, the switch is bad. Most places like Lowes, Home Depot, hardware stores or Radio Shack (hurry cause they may be going out of business) should have replacement switches.

Report back what you find.
