1986 K10 Interior Light

It seems that my interior dome light. (NOT the outside dome light.)
Won't turn off. I finally just pulled off the cover (cracked it) and took out the bulb.

Has anyone had this problem? Anyone recommend where to trouble shoot or a fix?

Thanks!

Dumb Light!!

My old '83 started that. Wouldn't work unless the lighter was pushed in!!! Never did diagnose the problem. Kinda dug the uniqueness.

btw: they're both on the same circuit.

Pin switch is probably bad/rusted/wet - they are really simple switches and dirt cheap.
