When I opened my back doors the dome light wouldnt go on.
I spent a half hour figuring out how everything in the jamb switch worked. If anyone has this problem, first of all make sure the switch isn't stuck. If it isnt, pull the switch back and take a phillips head screwdriver and take out the screw. Verify the connection is tight, and if it is, look at the back side of the switch and make sure there isnt anything inhibiting the contact between the moving black switch and its housing. I took a piece of steel wool and buffed it down. This removed all the rust and dirt that had built up in there. After that I put it all back in and it works like a charm!
Just a mini How-To for anyone who has this problem. :D
