Question Dome Light Switch??

Just installed a new dome light (from an earlier period). The other one fell apart in my hands. Question is how does it turn on? I thought it would be a left turn of the lights switch but mine does not rotate left as a switch,
only operates to dim the dash lights.

Turn it a little harder. Mine takes a pretty good twist to get to the dome position.
