Having trouble with dome light staying on you have a 1995 Ford Explorer The other day you were getting in your explorer and your door alert light came on and stayed on you got out and shut all of the?

Answer 1

You could have a sticking door ajar switch. The door ajar switches are inside the doors, mounted on the backside of the door catches. Also on the liftgate. First answer correct; Ford uses strange LATCH coupled sensor switches

for door ajar, with TWO wires.

Turn on Ign/do not start. Wait 20 sec. Open doors and liftgate / glass in sequence

each door open sound sound a tone, the one that does NOT is the

trouble ; you can disconnect the door latch connections (2wired)

momentarily short the two, open any other door with IGN ON,

GEM will reset the condition of Door Ajar, then you can tape up

the connection and leave it or pay $$$ for the latch assembly and installation

Ford designs have separated Grounds to each return point;

good to prevent false returns when connection points corrode

Lube in the latch sometimes frees up the sensor switch, but ppl

report that this works about 10% of the time by working the latch

with a screwdriveras a striker
