if your dome light is staying on also you just need to spray wd 40 in the locking mechanism on the door. it gets dirty and spraying cleaner in there will clean the contacts

This has been discussed numerous times and is not uncommon. Do a search on "Door ajar light" and look at the "03 Super Duty : Door ajar light" tab. Most folks have been successful spraying something like WD40 into the door lock mechanism. It worked for me and I have not had the problem since.. Good Luck!
