Door jamb switch

I recently acquired a 1993 class c Holiday Rambler. It has a door jamb switch much like a switch in a refrigerator to turn the light on. The switch fell apart and I cannot determine what it does. It does NOT control the steps, there is a magnetic switch for that, I cannot find any lights it controls, or anything that does not work because the switch croaked. Any ideas?
  • Disconnect the two wires and see if anything comes on/goes off/alarms.

    Connect the two wires together and see if anything comes on/goes off/alarms.

    Check to see under what conditions (maybe only with switch on) one of the wires is hot.

    X2, if it is a switch you could just put the two wires together and see what it controls. JMO
