The Focus door sensors are wired to what are basically little black buttons behind the door latch bar. Start the car and open the offending door. Look at the door latch mechanism on the car side, not the door side. You will see a small horizontal metal rod attached to 2 side brackets, much like a mini towel rack. Behind that is a little black button. When the door closes, that button is pushed in and the sensor thinks the door is closed. Clean the button and stick a little square of Duct Tape or similar (Gorliia is good) on the face of the button. This will reduce the clearance between the door latch and the sensor button, and should solve your problem.

How do you locate the door sensor that controls the overhead light in the cab of a 1998 Ford Ranger?

The sensor is intergrated into the door latch. If it is not working (and the door chime stays on) spray it with WD 40. This almost always works.


Where is the knock sensor located in a 2000 Alero?

It's located outside the drivers door. First, you must determine who is knocking on your door. Then after that you can open the door to reveal the knock sensor or if it is a manual knock sensor roll down the window and simply say "Hello" to the knocker. Hope this helps.
