Why is my gameObject.Find("Spotlight").GetComponent.() not working?

The script is for a light switch that when triggered with "e", is supposed to turn on a spotlight in the scene. It's not turning on though.

I disabled the light in the scene so I could turn it on with my lightswitch in game. However, even though I get no Error message, it just isn't enabling.

Any suggestions?

EDIT

I've just found out that when I'm in game, I can't enable the Light checkbox, even in the inspector... so the script isn't letting me enable it.

SpotlightSwitch script

 var open : boolean = false;
 
 var openAnimationString : String;
 var closeAnimationString : String;
 
 var buttonTransform : Transform;
 var distToOpen : float = 2;
 
 @HideInInspector
 var playerTransform : Transform;
 @HideInInspector
 var cameraTransform : Transform;
 
 var openSound : AudioClip;
 var closeSound : AudioClip;
 
 function Awake () {
     playerTransform = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").transform;
     cameraTransform = GameObject.FindWithTag("MainCamera").transform;
     if(open){
         GetComponent.<Animation>().Play(openAnimationString);
     }
 }
 
 function Update () {
 
 //my getComponent variable.
     var myLight : Light = gameObject.Find("Spotlight").GetComponent.<Light>();
 
     var alreadyChecked : boolean = false;
     var angle : float = Vector3.Angle(buttonTransform.position - cameraTransform.position,
 buttonTransform.position + (cameraTransform.right * buttonTransform.localScale.magnitude) -
 cameraTransform.position);
     if (Vector3.Distance(buttonTransform.position, playerTransform.position) <= distToOpen){
     if (Vector3.Angle(buttonTransform.position - playerTransform.position, cameraTransform.forward) < angle){
     if (Input.GetKeyDown("e") && !GetComponent.<Animation>().isPlaying){
 
 //Here is my enable/disabling below.
 
         if (open){
             GetComponent.<Animation>().Play(closeAnimationString);
             open = false;
             alreadyChecked = true;
             myLight.enabled = false;
             if (closeSound){
                 GetComponent.<AudioSource>().PlayOneShot(closeSound);
                 }
         }    
         if (!open && !alreadyChecked){
             GetComponent.<Animation>().Play(openAnimationString);
             open = true;
             myLight.enabled = true;
             if (openSound){
                 GetComponent.<AudioSource>().PlayOneShot(openSound);
             }
         }
 
 //First attempt.
 
         /*if (open){
             myLight.enabled = true;
             }
         if (!open){
             myLight.enabled = false;
             }*/
     }
     }
     }
 }

(This script is the same script I'm using for my door, I just got lazy and didn't change the script to say "hit" or something instead of "open" and "close".
