A few possibilities are; 1. the main light control switch is bad(most likely this) 2. fuse(s) blown or fuse kinks 3. shorted wires; sometimes if the truck has rust along the door frame/front seat mounting area/floor board area the wires will corrode and short under the carpet. Also these same set of wires can sometimes run next to or along side the frame rails under the car and do get corroded or damaged.
