Better than disconnecting that most irritating noise, you can easily fix the cause of it going off.

Hi - have a 1995 ford wind star - door open signal has now broken - and signals that door is open any time the car travels under 15 mph - which can be very aggravating - how can you disconnect this?

Yes. If you can locate the little bell or buzzer, you can disconnect the wires. But it's probably also the same bell that tells you about Low Fuel, etc.

2001 ford windstar door ajar sensors light stays on all the time even the interior lights dont come on?

My 1996 Windstar had the same problem, I found that the sliding door had some type of swinging switch. Looking into the door latch of sliding door is a square hole with rubber around. I used wd-40 and some other lubes. Each oil change I spray the hole and latch system. On each door is a set of contacts. I use scotch brite pad and clean them on both contact points. It does not so this any more.Note. When you do this it takes time for the lube to work. After 2 days of moving and such it stops. If you notice the lignt and bell starts when you are stopping or starting. I found this information some years back and it has saved me from trading the van. Good luck. I also found that when my door ajar light was stuck on (liftgate in my case), the interior lights were automatically deactivated. Once the false ajar signal went away, the lights resumed normal behavior.Also, when the dashboard dimmer wheel switch is in the all the way down position, it deactivates the interior lights - handy for when tail-gating or cleaning the van with the doors open.See "Related Questions" below for more about false door ajar signals...

How do you disconnect the door ajar bell from a 1998 Ford Ranger?

this is due to the internal door handle light switch plunger sticking. Often this can be fixed with a bit of WD40 sprayed around the lower part of the door lock. fixes it for a while. otherwise the light switch need to be replaced or removed and cleaned and re-lubricated with white grease I had this issue on my 98 Windstar. It is with great joy that I can say HAD. The answer was going to a mechanic that had worked in a junk yard and had litterally dismantled them. They were fixing something else and I mentioned what a pain it was to have that bell dinging all the time. The manager said he had a guy that could fix it easily. The fix I have didn't involve touching the doors, latches, contacts, or anything like it. Not a door was opened except the one to gain access to the underside of the dash. In about 15 minutes from my presenting the keys to the problematic car, he went under the dash, found the relay that had the dinger attached to the end, and popped the dinger module off, leaving the relay to do its work, but silently. The relay is a cylinder about 1" in diameter, black, with a 1/8" hole in the center for that damn bell to ding from. It has a place to insert a standard screwdriver on the side along a joint (between dinger and relay). He apparently twisted the screwdriver which popped off the end which broke the two connections to the bell and then "SILENCE". He came into the waiting room, tossed the part on the desk and said the relay will never ever ding again. It didn't and hasn't even though the door is still "ajar". Relief. I can't speak for all the Ford dinging problems, but the Windstar of 98 has an easy fix if you can find someone that knows something. The best part is that with the dinger gone, I know it will never come back, kind of like cutting the vocal chords of a bad singer. Good luck to you out there, hope your fix can be this easy as well.


Where is the starter on a 88 ford econoline?

On a 1988 Ford Econoline, the starter is located on the passenger side of the engine, near the transmission bell housing. It is mounted to the engine block and can be accessed from underneath the vehicle. To remove or replace the starter, you'll typically need to disconnect the battery and possibly remove other components for better access.
