cargo lamp

Ok, so on all my past trucks, there was a obvious switch to turn on the cargo lamp out back. On my current 2006 F150, I can only get it to come on while my door is opened. Is there a switch somewhere that will turn it on or do I just have to keep opening my door when I want light out back?

The roller/dimmer to the right of the lamp switch...turning all the way up, it will click to illuminate the interior and cargo light.

Alright, thanks. I guess when I have had 4 chevy's before this, I have to get used to the little things that are different on Ford trucks.
