Door open light stuck on

I think I read about this problem, but for the life of me, I cannot find the thread again.

When I close the doors on my truck, the indicator on the dash that a door is open stays lit, and the interior lights do not go off for a while.

From what I recalll you have to spray WD40 on something to resolve this problem.

What is the fix for this again?

Thanks for the help,
WR

In the latch... spray liberally!

Thanks!

I guess a little extra lube in the latch can never hurt



Thanks,
WR

your door ajar switch is stuck in one of your doors, a little penetrating oil will free it up, like he said, just spray inside the latch and cycle the door several times.
