Door ajar light won't go off?

Take a good penetrating fluid and wash out your door locks down where the jaws open wash that area real good open and close you doors a few times and do it again. The buttons only control the dome light. Not the door ajar light it is built into the door lock itself the part that closes on the pin is the area you'll want to wash real good.(NOS) 8)

The penatrating shouldn't make the doorlock go out unless the was a problem with it in the first place it is in a seperate place below the lock mech. You reall need to figure out which door is doing it. It is a little micro switch which is built into the latch and when you close the door it makes contact and breaks the ground and the light goes out. The door lock has a rubber shield over it so rain and dirt can't get down in it that is why I said what I said about it. Another thing to try is with the door open and do this with each door close the jaws all the way like it does when you close the door and see if the light goes out. If it does then that means when your closeing the door on the pin the door is not closeing all the way and you need to move the pin towards you just a little ok. And it is very possible that the switch is bad but try this stuff first before unpluging it some cars won't start without the hooke up because the computer thinks the door is open (NOS) 8)

When you replace the acuator you just cut the rivets off or knock the center pin out with a punch and drill the rivet out and replace them with small bolts when you replace it. And it is possible that the wd did do that but if all was intact it would not have. That is how all come from the factory. Yes that is the wire it breaks the ground when you close the door. Sorry about the acuator. One of thoes switch is not closeing when door shuts or that wire is touching ground some where. The WD40 was the first attack. They work in the same way your door jamb switches work to turn the dome light on only they have power to them when you open the door the switch pin grounds and the light comes on. In this case the bulb has power to it and when a door is open it grounds in the latch mech and turns the door ajar light on. I know it is hard to look in there. If you have a wall mart around for a low price of about 19 bucks they have excellent florcent trouble light that will go in the door to help you see in there a lot of times I also use a mirror you just have to rmrember that everything is in reverse(NOS)
