Some I have worked on have an added a separate door jam switch just for that function, otherwise you would have to get the signal through the BCM (Body Control Module) which could cause other BCM issues if not done correctly. You also could look up on the manufacturers website for the install guide and follow the directions.
If the interior light does not come on and it's a chevy check the interior light override switches position.
