rear courtesy lights

Does anyone know anything about the lights in the backseat? I replaced brand new bulbs in them and still cant get them to come on. Could this be a fuse problem? I was expecting them to be on whatever the same circuit as the dome light, but it actually comes on. :confused:

Have you tried the switch?  It might be bad.
