Door Ajar

Asked by GuruK3PXB Dec 20, 2019 at 05:31 AM about the 2007 Ford Escape Limited AWD

Question type: General

I can be driving (alone) and the door ajar indicator
with beep, when I park and get and slam all the
doors the inside lights stay on for more 25
seconds. My dimmer switch is not up high I check
that every time. Any thoughts?

Sounds like the switch is dirty, which is common. The fix is to spray some WD40 into the door latch to clean the contacts so the switch operates normally.
