On the dash by the speedometer there is a light that tells me when a door is open. Here lately that light is showing all doors open and the trunk open, even when I am driving. What would cause this and how do I fix it? I looked in the Chilton manual but could not find anything.

A faulty integrated relay or meter warning circuit would cause this.

The integrated control unit is plugged into underdash fuse box and the meter warning circuit is inside the meter cluster.

Sorry I could not find any information on testing procedures. The only way is to get a substitute unit to test.
