My Monty came with a spring-loaded switch on the hinge side of the entry door. The switch turns on three ceiling lights in the galley area when the door is open. Unfortunately, the switch has failed twice due to excessive heat. While replacing the switch this last time I measured the current that the switch has to handle and it was 7 amps. The switch is only rated at 5 amps. No wonder it has been failing. My solution was to replace those three ceiling lights with LED fixtures. Now the current is less than one amp. Barring a pure mechanical failure, I'm hoping that I have replaced the switch for the last time.
