Weird Front/Rear Interior Light Behavior

[ncarter124]

Got a strange one. I just got my Maverick, literally last night. I went to the store tonight and I noticed when I was pulling out of the driveway ONLY the rear interior light was on. I checked and no door ajar warnings or lights. I then confirmed the upper switch is in the center and when I toggled it to fully on the front lights came on, toggled it back to center and all lights went out. Great.
Now however, when I open any door (running, not running, doesn't matter) I only get the front interior lights. Even when I open a rear door only the front lights come on and not the rear. If I toggle the switch all lights come on, but the rear ones now seem to only operation when switched to them manually and not by opening the doors.
Has anyone had this happen? Tried searching but not a lot of luck.

I have same issue but never looked into it

Figured it out. Had to push the rear light to turn it off. Apparently you can push the entire light assembly to turn it off or on and mine was 'on'. Seems to have fixed the issue

Sorry Nick, I didn't see your post till now.
I made a video for another thread and posted it Wednesday about being able to turn the light on and off by pushing it.

For those that don't know. The back seat light can be turned on and off independently of the front light by pushing it. This light will also stay lit while the truck is running.
See video.

The Maverick is full of quirky surprises. . Glad to hear you solved the issue and thanks for posting to let others know.
