NUG here....Door open light ??

Hi guys thats Army slang for New Ugly Guy. Got a 2004 Excursion 6.0 , the door open indicator light won't turn off. Checked all the sensors all connected, push the lock buton on the remote and I get 2 beeps from the horn that indicates that there is a door open, but there is not. Any one got any ideas on where to go from here.

Thanks

I think it the sensor in the rear doors, bad design or something.

oh and welcome to the board....

+1. Mine's the same way. I have to open and very firmly close the three rear doors with authority.

Takes care of the problem every time.

Hello Gentlemen
This problem comes to me every winter with dirt in the rear.
Spray WD40 to the lower black female sensors of the doors, use a lot of it. It works. For a while.
