there are several things that could cause this issue.. 1st being a bad door pin switch.. another that I have seen is aftermarket alarms cause this condition.
The door panel on a 1996 Toyota Tacoma is held in place by several screws on the inside of the door. When these are removed, the panel can be lifted off.
the door ajar light is staying on all the time
I had a problem with my door ajar switch staying on in a 98 EXPO and when I took it to the dealer they just sprayed W-D 40 in the locking mechanism for the door. I guess there is a senso in there that turns the door ajar light on and the w-d 40 makes it get contact.
the door ajar switch is Incorporated into each door latch if you have a problem with the door ajar light staying on along with the interior and running board lights spray each latch including the back glass and door latches and open and close each door several times this should fix the problem good luck
Because one of your door sensors are broken.
Ajar is the term for a door that is slightly open.
