Default 2010 Dakota SXT Quad Cab - interior lights do not turn on when door is opened

Hi,
I have a 2010 Dakota SXT Quad Cab. The interior lights do not turn on when door is opened. I have checked fuses and also different settings of the dial to turn on interior lights but sill no go. The exterior cab light butto works and also the interior lights do work when pressed manually.
Is there a switch from the doors to check or maybe another place for the fuse I am not finding?
thanks

Rotate the dimmer switch (next to the headlight switch) up to the second upward detent position.

They might also be set by pressing the light. So, with the doors closed, turn on the lights manually. Then, press the light one more time. Open the door to check it.

If I recall correctly, the back passenger light has a switch with three positions on it. One for off all the time, one for on as a reading light, and the other as an automatic entry light.
