Default Dome light will not come on

Hey guys, my dome light will not come on when I open the drivers side door. It comes on when I open the passenger side door. Any ideas on whats going on and how to fix it?

It's probably a problem with the left door switch which is attached to the door latch. Sometimes you can fix it by cleaning the grime out of the latch (a good shot of spray contact cleaner from Radio Shack usually works). Also, there is a small amount of adjustment for the switch if you loosen the mounting screws.

Thank you, I'll give it a try.
