The 1998 Ford Windstar is equipped with sliding door sensors that help detect whether the doors are securely closed or ajar. If the sensor malfunctions, it may trigger warning lights on the dashboard or prevent the doors from locking properly. Common issues include dirt or debris affecting the sensor's function, or electrical problems. To troubleshoot, check for obstructions, clean the sensor area, and test the wiring for continuity.

Ford was rather late in the mini-van game when they added the second sliding door in 1999, and continued it to the end of the Windstar name in 2003. Trivia Tidbit: The successor to the Windstar name was the "Freestar" and coincided with the introduction of the twin Mercury Monterey. I do not believe any single side door Windstar was offered after 1998.
It is very very likely the doors are interchangeable. The 1999 through 2003 Windstars were essentially unchanged.

Each sliding door has their own motor. Disconnect the wiring to the little motor inside the door you want disabled.
To address the issue with your 2001 Windstar's sliding door, first, check the door alignment by inspecting the hinges and adjusting them if necessary. You may also need to clean the door latch and the rear sensor to ensure they're functioning properly. If the light continues to indicate that the door is ajar, consider replacing the door sensor, which can often be done without professional help. Additionally, make sure that the door is fully closed and securely latched when testing.

The passenger sliding door of a Ford Windstar LX needs frequent cleaning and checking of the rubbers to prevent jamming. If a door jams a lot during sliding, take out the rubber linings and clean them up before re-attaching.
There is a child safety lock on the door itself,could be on the front end of sliding door too.not really sure though but good luck on that prob.
