Default Left map light doesn't work when opening door

I have a 2008 Pilot where the drivers side map light doesn't turn on when opening the door but turns on if I manually do it. I believe there is a switch that is not working correctly. Is the switch in the door or in the console where the lights are? Any idea on how to remove the light console if it is above the console? Thanks.

Found it and fixed! Two screws in the sunglass holder and a screw under each light cover. The unit just drops down after the 4 screws are removed. Removed the Homelink module, pulled the switch out, cleaned the contacts and now it works!
