Door locks Relay//door ajar light

My door locks stopped working, door ajar light in the dash stays on and the radio does not shut off when the door is opened upon exiting the vehicle. Checked the owners manual for a fuse or relay. The owners manual says fuse 102. I checked that seem good even switched it with anthor fuse still didn' t work. I'm at a loss and I dont want to go to the dealer. Is there a switch in the door or relay in the door that I should be looking for? Mike

Pull fuse #19 for about 10 seconds then put it back in.
It works for me when mine does this.
