Keep your interior courtesy and dome lights switching on cue with the Standard Ignition Door Jamb Switch (DS-117), a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of classic Mopar and Kaiser-Frazer applications — including the 1952-1954 DeSoto Firedome, 1953 Dodge Coronet, 1949-1953 Dodge Meadowbrook, 1951-1953 Plymouth Cranbrook, 1949-1950 Plymouth Deluxe and more. This is the front door jamb switch. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered vehicles.
Mounted at the door jamb, this switch mechanically opens and closes an electrical circuit as the door opens and shuts, controlling the interior courtesy/dome lighting circuit. A worn or corroded switch is a common reason the dome light stays on with the door closed, or fails to light when the door is opened; if the original switch is the cause, this replaces it.
Backed by decades of ignition-product research and complete quality control from componentry to finished product.
