interior lights not working Options

[hurley97]

so when my passenger door is open the interior lights dont come on...my switch is bad, need a new one, no big deal[hopefully ]. but i just noticed that now the same thing happens when i open the hatch...no lights.

[so this is probably a stupid question but here it is anyway] are they connected? or have both of them just coincidentally failed at the same time? maybe theyre wired in series? im hoping if i replace the passenger door switch it'll somehow link to the hatch and im done...yes? no?

(drivers door still works fine)

edit: also my seatbelt light is always on. its always been on and not worked but just went off one day. then i got it back from having my alarm installed and its now on again...is that an easy fix or do i have to take sh*t apart?

the dome light fuse is fine

again:
drivers door opens - all the interior lights come on as they should
passenger door opens - no lights whatsoever
hatch opens - no cabin lights, the trunk light works fine though

theres power to the wire that goes to the passenger door switch, i assume i just need a new switch
is the same thing wrong with the hatch? wheres the switch for that? help please
