Door ajar 24/7!

Hey -

I have a 2003 Expy and recently the car has begun to believe that there is an open door all the time. I tried them all, even closing the rear hatch with another door open to make sure it closed. I'm assuming it is a stuck switch somewhere, but I don't see any on the doors, which leads me to believe that they are built into the locks. Anybody know how I might go about fixing this without going into the dealer?

Thanks

DVG

Spray some WD-40 into the latches of the door, and then open and close them a few times.

You sure the dimmer switch isn't all the way up?

On edit...Oh wait...that wouldn't make the door ajar light come on...
