Unhappy Dome light stuck on

Both my dome light and the light on the rear of the cab seem to be stuck in the on position. I tried pushing the switches in the door jamb but that only made the light dim. Any Idea what's wrong or which fuse I should pull?
edit: it's a 1986 F-150 with an EFI 302

If you turn the headlight **** all the way clockwise it will turn them on. make sure the **** isn't in that position. Turning it clockwise will dim the dash lights.

If that isn't it, the headlight switch is probably bad.

this may not be it, but did you try turning your headlight switch? on mine one way turns on internal lights and the other way controls the dash brightness.

(edit: doh, beat me)
