My interior and cargo light stays on after engine is shut off and door is shut. Is there a switch in the door latch, and if so, how do I get access to repair ?

It's a real common problem with Fords. The switches for the lights are attached to the inside of the door latches. Get yourself a can of spray silicone and liberally spray down the latches from the outside and work the doors a few times. That'll take care of it. You'll probably have to do this often.
