To fix the trunk ajar light and beep in your 1996 Lincoln Town Car Executive, first check the trunk latch and ensure it is functioning properly; debris or wear can prevent it from closing fully. Inspect the trunk lid's rubber seal and the latch mechanism for any damage or misalignment. If the issue persists, locate the trunk ajar switch, which may be a simple button or sensor, and test it for proper operation or replace it if necessary. Lastly, if all else fails, consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.
First, check the trunk. There is a plastic cover that goes over the trunk latch; it pushes the pin in on the trunk when you close it. If it is not on properly you need to put it on so the light will stay on. If that doesn't work you have a bad door switch somewhere.

door ajar means one of the cars doors are not closed all the way in ture this will keep your dome light on
Trunk lid or rear hatch is open.
On the 1984 the switch is located on a metal plate in the engine compartment side of the trunk--it is just a pin switch--probably the metal plate has bent down--or if you want just remove the wire on the switch A work around it to remove the ajar light bulb from the instrument panel. Make sure your trunk light or spare tire compartment light are out or you will drain the battery.
its either your doors switch that has gone bad or your rear hatch.
