Door jam switch replacement, orientation?

1996 F-Superduty.

Does the door jam switch have to be orientated a certain way? There are three wires and the switch can be inserted with a rotation of three different ways. There's three wires, red, black with white stripe and green.

The dome light doesn't work when opening the drivers door, but works fine opening the passengers door. Hoping it's the switch.

Take a marker and draw a line from the switch to the connector on the passenger side. Make the driver side match.
