HI,CHEK THE DOOR BY THE HINGE PROBABLY THE DOOR STOPER IS BAD..

The sensor colors are correct. Try wiping the little eye sensors that point at each other for one thing and make sure there isn't something protruding from door that's coming into the patty of electric sensors.

Yes, Here's how. It's all about the hinges. Facing the door from the outside, if the hinges are on the left, and the door swings to the inside, it is a left hand opening door. If it swings in with the hinges on the right, it would be a right hand opening door.
Best regards, --W/D--

Hello! The instigator of this problem appears to be the the rear cargo lamp; Official name is rear dome light. You'll need a multimeter set on the X10 ohm scale to shoot this trouble. Leave the rear dome light bulb out. There are two switches involved; #1 the rear dome light on/off. #2 the right hand front door switch.

Pull the horn fuse out, remove the rear dome light cover, drop the rear dome light down to access the wiring and close all doors on the vehicle. Connect one lead of the ohm meter to the white wire and the other to body ground. If you read any resistance one or both of the two switches (dome light switch or right hand front door switch) is remaining closed when all doors are closed. Next disconnect the black lead from the dome light switch and see if reading changes to zero. If it does this is indicating that the dome light switch is defective. If it does not, disconnect the right hand door switch and take another reading at the same location. If you still measure any resistance, the black wire of the rear dome light is shorted to ground, if not then the right hand door switch is the culprit.

The reason the right hand door switch and not the left hand door switch is involved is the fact that opening the left front door would turn on the front dome light as well as the rear light. If both dome lights are staying on with all doors closed I would then involve both door switches in this test procedure. If your vehicle is a four door model then disconnect one door switch at a time while performing this test procedure.

The horn fuse also supplies power to the rear dome light, and I suspect the two events are related.

I believe it's the washer fluid light

Here's a list of your dash lights and their meanings

Left
1. Door-ajar warning light
2. Oil pressure warning light
3. Check engine warning light
4. Tour or Sport for the ECS
5. Security indicator

Center Warning Lights
1st space down
Left: 4-wheel steering oil level warning light
Right: Brake warning light
2nd space down:
Left: Anti-lock brake warning light
Right: Active Exhaust Tour indicator
3rd space down
Left: cruise control indicator
Right: cruise control ON indicator
4th space down:
Left: charging system warning light
Right: High-beam indicator

Right Warning Lights
1st down: Not used
2nd down: Seatbelt warning light
3rd down: Washer fluid (2 storage containers)
4th down: Supplemental restraint system (SRS) warning light

usually on post where door closes, or in jamb by hinge area. Open door & try pushing any button/pin like object or may be a lever style too, with thumb or finger.When interior light goes out, you found it

make sure you havent left the right hand side indicator on as if it is left on it will leave a light on. Might not work but its a suggestion
