interior light does not go out when the door closes

Asked by TFB999 Apr 20, 2016 at 10:39 PM about the 1969 Ford F-100

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have an old truck 1969 Ford F-100.  There is a button inside of the doorframe
that is connected to the interior cab dome light.  when you close the door the
button is pushed and the light goes out.  The problem I have is that the plastic
holding the button in place is cracked so the button gets pushed through the
hole that is holding it in place.  The button does not get pushed and the light
does not go off as if the door is not actually closed

1 Answer

Good to know I can just replace the plastic part and not the entire button as well. I guess my real question is what is this part called so i can ask for it by name!
