Lights Staying On

Ok, I have the autolocking feature, but as I'm going down the road, my "Door Ajar" light on the instrument panel stays lit. Anyone else having these problems? Also, When I get out of my Expedition, and walk away, I use my remote transmitter to "Lock" the car, and I listen for the horn to chirp. But, sometimes [not always] the Expedition's running board lights will stay on for a LONG TIME. If anyone else has had these problems, or knows how to cure them, please let me know. PS - There was a delay in getting the billet grille put on, so it'll be on BY Thursday, and I will post some pics. then.

I've also had this problem. I have found that the door latching mechinism at the back of the door has become dirty and the door switch is not making good contact. Try using compressed air to blow the latch assembly out then spray some penetrating oil (WD-40) on the latch. Any one of the doors could be causing your light to stay on so you might want to clean all of them.
