When I open the driver door the interior light does not come on. When I put the key in the ignition the buzzer does not buzz and the driver door ajar light on the dash does not light up. All other doors when open turn on the interior lights and light up on the door ajar on the dash. Also the light on the door panel does not come on. Would you please help me.

Hello and thanks for donating

The symptoms you are describing are that of a failed or sticky door jamb switch. The switch is located in each door's jamb area. Since it's the driver door you are having issues with, the driver's door ajar switch is the one at fault. You can first try lubricating this switch with WD40 to see if it helps the issue. If not then the switch will need replaced. The switch is only about $10 new, it will look like the pic below..
