The door switches are usually located at the front of the door jamb where the hinges are located. Look for a pin-type button sticking out of the jamb. This is called a plunger switch. If you can locate the switch and disconnect the wiring harness, you can use a paper-clip to jumper the wires together to test for a bad switch. Usually a bad switch will cause the interior lights to stay illuminated until the timer tells them to turn off. If this is the case in your situation, you probably have a bad switch/

1999 Lincoln Continental. Where is the door ajar switch location please?

Jeff Armer Mar 18, 2024
Part of the door latch, all doors

Jeff Armer is our Fixya vehicle electronics specialist, and of course is 100% correct.

The electrical door jamb switch is located on the latch on the inside of the door. You may be able to get it to work if you spray the latch in the door with WD40 and slam the door a few times, or work the latch open and closed using a screwdriver to trip the latch and open using the door handle.

2003 lincoln navigator running board stay out on passanger side unless your are moving (they retract) passenger mirror does not adjust backig up message continues saying door ajar

You probably have a bad door switch that is located in the door latch.If the vehicle tells you which door is ajar I would try a good penetrating oil first and if not replace that door latch.It will take a bit of working the latch before it will start to work if thats all it is so have some patients with it.

Door sensor 2003 lincoln navigator where is it and how do you fix it

There should be a switch in the door frame which the door pushes in when it is closed. Sounds like it's loose or pushed back into the frame.

2003 Lincoln Navigator door sensor problems

One of your courtesy light switch's is defective, it can be in any of the five doors (rear hatch has 2), Ford can determine which one (courtesy light switch) is at fault by using a NGS (New Gen Star Tester) to monitor the switches through the Generic Electronic Module of your truck, these switches are attached to the door latch assembly and are time consuming to replace, so the Ford tester is the cheapest option.

Door ajar light stays on

I have the same problem with my passenger door all the time. The dealer was nice and didn't charge me for some advice. Find out which door it is or do this to all. It is the part on the door the grabs the round thing in the door jam. It looks like two fingers kinda. Spray with WD-40 and clean with a rag to get all the dirt out of there. Spray again and open and close the door several times. This clears my problem and I hope this helps you too.
