there are a few things it can be. if you have a multimeter check the bulb ( it may be faulty too) then check the lamp fitting itself for voltage supply ( should be at least 12Volts).
it may have a Switch? next to the lamp fitting which has packed up ( faulty internally) Ideally a multimeter check can test the bulb and the lamp fitting but if you have neither try using a test lamp ( a simple 12v bulb with wires at each end in effect) this can check if you have any voltage flowing through the lamp fitting. by using it on the bulb and across the battery terminals you can test the bulb too.
most likely a failed lamp switch and will need replacing .a breaker is cheap way of doing that but check out cost first versus time with a main dealer and make your choice.
