''Shut the door''....ok...maybe you tried that already. 1. Locate the switch (i.e. dash edge, door jam). (sometimes the plunger rod (the stick) breaks off. When the door closes it can not activate the switch.) For it to work properly, you have to replace the switch. It is designed as a safety feature. You should never by-pass a safety feature. That being said, If you just want the light off... Paper from a straw, jammed into the hole will get it off. Of course, that could result in serious injury or even death. BUT THOSE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT AS H.....and sometimes you just have to do what you can to get by.

My F250 does the same thing. I think it has something to do with the door latching mechanism. I ended up taking out the bulbs. You can still manually turn on the interior lights with the switch up on the ceiling.
