How to test a light switch.

Hello, I think I have a bad light switch in my 55' f100. I have power to the main connector, but when I pull the **** out, I dont have power to the other connectors. Is there a way to check my switch, or is this a pretty good sign that my switch is bad?
I am reluctant to buy a new one, because it worked until I added new dash lights, and I am thinking it might be something else. Any help is appreciated.Also, wouldnt the fuse on the back be burnt if I damaged it somehow? Thanks.
