Just knocking the obvious off the list, but there is a switch to turn them on inside the rambox. A little yellow button if I recall correctly. i only mention it because that switch isn't exactly out in plain sight.

i believe it is that i moved switch around it turned on
I just got a 19 and neither side is working. Last night the drivers side came on for a minute. When you say you moved the switch around, are you referring to the yellow push button or a different switch. It's almost like the light is not sensing the door opened. I looked for something like on a regular door but don't see anything.

So I had a similar issue with mine. Rambox lights, center console and glove box lights weren't working.
I took my truck to the dealer and they found out there is a wire that was being chafed by sharp plastic on the hinges of the center console.
I guess all the lights were all tied in with that wire thus causing them all to fail when the wire was continuously being chaffed.
They replaced the wire and center console. All covered under warranty.

I took off the yellow rubber cap and put some dielectric grease on it. Put it back together, pressed the button a bunch, wiggled it around. Seems to be working fine. I might upgrade the lights themselves.
