According to owners manual, supposed to be a 3 position switch right beside the interior light to select On/OFF/DOOR position.
My car has 2 interior light, no switch, they can be turned On/Off by pushing on them.
I want light to come ON when door opens and to stay OFF when I am inside car.
Any suggestion how ?
Thanks!

For some bizarre reason the "on-off-door" switch on older Versas is on the rear dome lamp and not the map lamp. If the rear dome has no switch then somebody replaced the fixture with the wrong one.

As I always sat in the driver seat, I did not even noticed there is a small "rear" interior light, but you are 100% correct, there is a smaller rear interior light with a 3 -position switch.
So the 2 larger front "map" light are only On/Off by manually pushing them, and the smaller single rear light either manually On/Off or works automatically with a door.
Thanks for your reply, another mystery solved.

I notice you posted in NF as well as here, you might want to post the answer there for others who might be searching. Good info never dies. ;)
