Interior lights won't go off????

When I close the doors, the interior lights stay on. I know that I can just turn the switch to "off" but the door lights stay on. I have removed the bulbs, but the battery still dies if I don't unplug it. Where's the switch that is usually located in the door jam to turn off the interior lights when the door is closed?

Mine is bad, but in the other way - half the time the lights don't come on when the door opens. Fine with me.

If you're looking at the door, it's the little flexible rubber plug in the lower back corner. If you remove the sender, you should be able to fix the problem - my passenger's door doesn't have one, and as far as the car knows, it's never open. I'm not sure if the wires are tied together, or if they're just left disconnected, but it should be fairly easy to figure out once things are removed.
