Interior Dome light problems

First off, the only time my dome light comes on when you open the passenger door, It does not come on when any other door is opened. Why?

Second, I installed XLT dome lights with the switched map lights, and they will only turn on when the door is open. What can I do to make them come on all the time?

Thanks!

the light with the map lights has a constant hot wire (one hot, one switched, one ground). as far as it only coming on with one door... i would start with the pin switches. they tend to get stuck.
