Problem with close door light and temp

I have a 2003 diesel F250 and the close door on the dash wont go out even though the doors are closed , are these a magnetic switch or regular switch that can be located and replaced?

all so I have my temperature control on top about the radio on the ceiling adn the light on it went out is that a replacement part or something that can be replaced easily?

The switches were moved into the door latch area in the door. Most people have problems with the domelights staying on. 99% of the time if you flood the latch in the door with wd40 and work it a couple of times, the problem will go away. Otherwise you have to take the door apart to get to the switch.

Don't know about your temperature readout light. The only thing I have heard about the overhead consoles are their problems with solder joints inside that can make the electronics quit working.
