Spray it UP into the latch and open and slam the door a bunch of times.
Sometimes the switches go bad -- but that's rare -- usually they just jam.
You're sure it's not on at the dashboard, right? Does your truck ding with the key in? If it does, it's the drivers door; if it doesn't it's the passengers or (if you have a 4 door) one of the back doors (if they have switches?)...

Ok..
It dings, so its the Driver door (per John)
I have about a half can of WD-40 and half can of electric parts cleaner in there..
Been slamming the door for hours..
It went off twice so far, so it think its jammed..
No its not on on the dash.. checked that.. lol..
There is a fuse for the dome light right?

Fuse 26 in the cab -- but it's also the dash, the GEM, and the restraints control module...it's not just the dome light.
It'll turn off in 10 to 15 minutes anyway when the power saver relay kicks in.

ahh I had this same problem jason. Tell me does your seat belt often get stuck in the door when you close it? I took some wd-40 and soaked both the Latch on the door and inside the door pannel. It took about 35 minutes of opening / closing my door for it to finally kick in but since then I have not had the problem 1 time.

You can spray the latch assembly from the outside without any disassembly. To remove the latch assembly, you must remove the door panels and pull them from the inside. They are a bit of a hassle to remove. I would try spraying and working the latches some more before resorting to that.

I have emptied a whole can into the latch..
The dinger dings with the keys in, as john pointed out this is the driver side, could it be the driver side rear causing the problem?
Where exactly is the rear switch (if its not to much trouble)?
