Door ajar

If anyone can help regarding 2008 escape driver door wiring?
Question is , The switch in the latch has what color wires?
And would it be possible to just bypass the switch.

From the 2010 wiring diagrams

C525 connector for Door Lock Unit, Driver Side:

Green-Violet 20 gauge wire is Drivers door latch ajar switch. If the door is closed, then the latch switch is closed, which provides continuity from the Green-Violet to the 20 gauge Black-Gray ground wire.

2008 was the body update, 2009 was the powertrain update. So I would expect your 2008 to be similar/same for door-ajar latch switch as a 2010.
