help with doorpin
'96 F150, reg cab.
My driver doorpin is messed up. When you open the door the interior light doesn't come on. So I figured the pushpin switch just had either gone bad with corrosion, etc. I haven't gotten around to changing the switch out, but today I had an observation...keep the keys in the ignition and open the door and the idiot buzzard goes off. So I guess the switch is working. Is there somewhere else I need to check like on the fuse box or something for a relay or something of the like to get my interior light going? It comes on when you open the pass side door.
thanks in advance!!!

On the drivers side pin switch, there is 3 wires. Green/Yellow is power feed, Red/Pink is to the warning chime and the Black/Light Blue is to the interior lights. Either the switch is bad or there is a problem with the Black/Light Blue.
