Default Dome lights won't turn on with open door

Hello all,

I am new to TCF and this is my first post so bare with me if I'm missing something simple. I have a 2014.5 Camry SE with no sunroof. My issue is that when I open the door, the front dome lights do not turn on. The Manual claims that there should be a button by the dome lights(by the sunglasses compartment) but I don't have a button. When I turn the dome lights on manually, they work no problem so I know it's not the bulbs. In the back seat I have the switch for Off/Door/On and I have it on the door position. The rear lights turn on when I open the doors but not the front. Am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

There are no buttons (3) near the dome light?

Nope, I have no buttons by my dome lights. (which actual makes the car look a lot cleaner) Just a switch in the middle of ceiling for Off/Door/On and I figured that the door setting would work on all four but it's only working in the back. I have no sunroof so maybe that's why. I'm hoping that once my LEDs come in and I replace those it will be bright enough that I don't even need the front lights.

Don't know for SE.

Interior lights are controlled by a computer which the dealer can set to how the work. Since the car is under warranty suggest taking it to the dealer.
