Default 2003 Tribute rear hatch courtesy light switch

Greetings from a newby
My 2003 Tribute has an issue with the courtesy light switch for the rear hatch glass. I have to slam it unusually hard for the courtesy lights to go out. I'm having a little trouble finding any info on switch replacement or adjustment. I generally purchase a set of factory manuals for my vehicles but availability and price has me hesitating. Can anyone shed light on how the switch is accessed? I downloaded a manual from allcarmanuals.com but I can't find any reference for this problem.

Thanks, Randy
