Dome Light issue

My dome light works when I set it to the on position. But when any of the doors are open (when the dome light is set in the auto position) it doesn't work.
What do I need to look for. Is there a fuse or something? Thanks

it could be a fuse . it could also be a door switch. do all the doors have the same problem? or just oen door.? if its all doors then its a fuse probably. if its jus toen door it shouldbe be the door switch.

I can't see all the door switches being bad, so it's likely a problem either with the switch itself or the power wire coming from the switches to the auto switch.
I'd check for power on the wire going to the "auto" switch.

When I swapped AT meter out for 5 speed meter. My dome light acts this way now. I leave it off.
