Default Interior lights won't come on when door open

Recently my passenger door will not trigger the interior lights to come on, I replaced the switch at the door jam and still nothing. The drive side works though.

Thanks in advance

Default Thanks

Found out the switches I was using came out of a 96 and didnt work in my 99. Once I put the right year switch in BINGO back to working thanks for the advice. Now if I can get my trunk light to shut on and off like it suppose to. Right now it stays on all the time.
