That was exactly what the problem was on mine, and I fixed it using my soldering iron to melt and dripl a small piece of plastic in that divot. Thank you for posting this informative video to show us what the problem was.
My fix: I separated the two halves of the assembly -- another 4 screws. I popped the part with the "off dome on" on it and pushed the contactor out. I put some electrical tape just in front of the center contact, covering the other two. I pushed the tape flat and use some snips to cut holes at the two outer contacts. Now, it works perfectly.
Super helpful. I just put some tape to cover the metal for the “on” position. Easy fix and if you still need to use the light then just click them on individually. Now I don’t have to leave the switch in the off position and the lights will turn on when doors are open! Thanks for posting this!
I believe temperature may be a reason for the plastic to be melted my metal. It happened to my car right after leaving it in a rooftop garage under hot sun for a week and the button even struggled to go to on position when pressed. Before staying under sun, it wasn't like that.
I fixed mine with uv resin to fill the divot. Not sure how it will hold up as there was some warpage due to heat. I also have a sunroof switch so the plastic is a bit thinner for the switch.
OMG! That’s EXACTLY what my car did today and I didn’t have any idea what it was or what’re do🥴 I’m a female and I don’t know anything about cars 😬 so I actually panicked 😳 my question to you is do I take it to the dealership to get that fixed? Thank you! 🙏🏼 for this helpful video.

Thanks 👍💯💯🍀
Interested in knowing the fix.. tape would work but hate to let the ON switch go away :)

How did you remove the switch mechanism in order to get access to the divot and repair it? Thanks.

Inside light blink on when hit window controls on left windows
So what about if the lights work but won’t come on when you open the door??? It will stay ok until you move the vehicle
Poor design by Hyundai. I have the same issue.
Well, what did you do to fix it?
I did fix mine melting the little plastic with a soldering iron and then restoring the shape with epoxy clay. Works like new now!
I covered the ON position contact.
Believe it or not I just punched it 4 times while it’s still in place and it turned off
