I'd change the light switch. Sometimes they go bad I had to change one before.

Most likly that switch, i had issues like that and once i replaced it works perfect. It can also be that plug that goen into that switch they usually melt pretty good so you might have to change that to.

If your car is a GT then replace the switch for sure. You may want to do more than that though, check out this article;
