Trunk light won't come on?

98 Honda Civic LX

Trunk light won't come on. I already tested for voltage continuity, and I tried changing the bulb.

Bad switch?

The switch on my fridge sometimes gets gummy and will not pop out when the door is open, and the light does not come on unless I pop it out and clean it up.

So you have 12 volts inside the bulb holder? If so…
First of all check your new bulb is working by connecting it across the battery, (use a length of wire)
Check the necessary fuse in the main box
If the bulb is okay and you have +12v in the holder

Then fault is with the Earth wire, Check the continuity at the holder.
