Location of door plunger/switch for interior dome light

My interior dome light is acting wonky, staying on, not turning on at all, etc. I'm suspecting one of the little door plungers was going bad but for the life of me I can't locate them.


I have a 2012 e350.......how do the interior lights turn off? On every other car I've owned there are little plungers recessed into the door jambs

I wish it was that easy. Nothing there

Perhaps the plunger you're looking for is in the latch itself?
