I have the same issue and have done extensive research on the subject. I have a good friend that owns a suzuki dealership and we contacted suzuki about this issue. Apparently it is a known issue, something with the power inverter for the light is known to blow out. Suzuki will huff and puff depending on the age and warranty status of the vehicle but if you push hard enough they will cover it. Supposedly they didnt start failing in mass quantity till just after they time required to start a recall. I just tore mine apart today to see if it was the bulb or inverter, its the inverter. (Actually the damn bulb is a christmas tree light lol) Seriously, it looks just like one, but apparently it works on a different voltage and amperage. With a lil research I was able to find out the specs and find a blue bulb that works in its place...nice little mod, once you have the parts it takes five minutes, a phillips head and a flathead. Good luck with replacements guys, its a pain in the ass sometimes.....
