Door Ajar!
The 2003 Explorer I just bought used was hit right behind the passenger rear door. They did a half *** repair on the body which did not look like it was too bad initially, but apparently since then the Door Ajar light has been on. is there a diagram of the wiring for the Door Ajar sensor in the door that I can use to possibly fix this? Should I replace the sensor?

If you happen to have access to a professional grade scan tool, accessing the GEM module should identify which door or liftgate/glass is causing the door ajar light to be on. Are you sure it's the passenger rear door? The driver's door usually sees the most use and it's not uncommon for that door ajar switch to act up.
I've had good luck with Caig De-Oxit to clean/lubricate the door ajar switches. You might start with that or electrical parts cleaner to see if that frees up the switch and gets the contacts working again.
