Thumbs up Light switch

The dome light switch is the one one the left end above the climate control on the center console. I just looked on my car, same as yours.

Check the connections on the courtesy lights on the bottom of the rear doors; if the ground side of the these connections touches the body, it closes the circuit for the 3 rear interior lights. I had this problem intermittently at one point and was very confused for a while.
