well... for the last couple of months ive been driving with the door ajar light on. ive tried shutting all doors and making sure nothing is in the way, but the light just wont go off. any suggestions?

have you reset the battery yet?

unhook the negative, leave it for a good 30 mins, reconnect it. doesnt seem like it hsould work, but sometimes it does, and its worth a shot, other than that, id say its the sensor, i think its actually in the latch in the ranger

try a bit of a lube job on the latch. seems to work for other people. just spray some WD or preferred lubricant (hehehe) in the door latch and cycle the door (open and close it) a few times.

Yup, couple small shots of wd-40 on the door latch, then your fixed. I swear we must get this question atleast once a month.

my check engine light still hasnt come on with my cats being gone for a few months. the light works too. i think the guy slipped in some simulators for free or somethin. the guy thats done my exhaust twice is cool either way.
