Angry Door ajar

On my 2001 F-250 4x4
Door ajar warning ight is now staying on and the dome light stays on with it. I had remove fues #14 to turn off the dome light. Appears the ajar switch is bad in one of the doors. Is there a way to tell which door has the faulty switch with out tearing into each one and how do I get to the faulty switch?

Did you soak the latch with wd-40 first?
if so then to replace the switch you need to remove the latch.

Wink 2001 F-250 4x4 crew cab

Thanks the WD-40 did resolve the door ajar switch problem. It appears to be the rear passenger side door that was the problem.
