Oh you're talking about the thingy that's spring loaded and sticks out?

What they look like on back doors?

Am I supposed to unplug them somehow or what exactly?

OK if I pull it out it should shut the light off if it's a bad switch right?

I assume can probably buy a new switch h at AutoZone or similar?

Out of curiosity, is there any chance it may just be bad connection? Like I take out old switch clean the connections and reconnect it might work?
