Why are the interior lights on my Mustang not turning off?

Why does the interior light always go off in my car?
She had ever so carefully rocked the 2 switches under the mirror to sit in the middle thus turning off the lights. It turns out she had the head light switch clicked over so that the interior lights would always be on. My car is an 1987 so it’s different but I had my door dinger stuck on and it was the sensor on the door frame.

Manually press each switch to see if the light will deactivate. You should feel each one click. Excessive play or no clicking sound indicates a faulty switch. Start the vehicle and allow it to run for five minutes. Turn the key off and remove it from the ignition. Open and shut each door.

Over time, the heads wear down, and the springs no longer hold the pins. That’s when it’s time to change the switch. It doesn’t hurt to put a thin film of white lithium grease on the horn contact rings. The function of the turn signals is integral with the function of the brake lights.
