Hi Rick,
This is a common issue with Ford Rangers. The door latch serves asa switch to the dome light. What you need to do is to lubricat/spray WD40 to the door latch and close and open the door several times. This will adjust/fit the switch to the door latch.
Let me know if this helps.
I am making a follow on this issue, Rick.

Due to some things beyond my control my pickup is not at my house right now but it will be tomorrow so I will try your advice at that time. Thank you for your help.
Alright Rick. I will wait for your update tomorrow.
