I take it you are referring to the door ajar switch, which is located on the bottom of the latch assxembly. Yes, the door panel must be removed to gain access to the inside mounted latch. I just did this. The latch assembly is best removed to change out the switch. Not an easy fix - there are four control rods (for the drivers door) and a cable assembly plus a wire harness .attached to the latch. The power door lock motor is also attached and to remove it requires rivets be drilled ouof it and the inside door handle assembly.


If your car keeps saying the door is ajar when it is closed you need to spray WD40 into the latch. Its very easy, just open the door and spray WD40 into the latch and close and open the door a few times. This should fix your problem. Make sure you do it to all the doors because they will start to all do the same.

How do you replace your head gaskets on your 2002 Pontiac grand am gt?

This is a major repair requiring the removal of the intake and exhaust manifold, and then the removal of the heads. Not a DIY repair unless you have the knowledge, and tools necessary to accomplish this repair. If you want to tackle this job, I suggest you buy yourself a repair manual for your Pontiac.
