interior lights staying on

ive looked at alot of threads on this site and have found nothing yet so i am wondering if anyone jknows what the issue is my cargo lts rear seat lts and bed lts stay on after i start the truck, it seems like the relay is sticking i was wondering where the relay was for that or if there is another resolution that you guys can come up with.
i also already wd40 the door plungers and checked the relay panel under the passenger side and in the left fender and they are not it.

thanks in advance

Check the instrament light dimmer switch next to the head light switch. It must have gotten rolled into the cargo light posisition.

Darn, I thought I was so clever!. I'm not going to be much help then. But I would suspect that same switch as the culprit. It's tough to diagnose without a proper schematic which I don't have. Hopefully someone else will chime in on this.
