Besides the door open light, the open door bell kept chimming, then the
interior lights would come on and off. Quite annoying and got worse as the
days passed by. I viewed your video and reached for some Dupont Teflon
multi-use dry wax lubricant and after spraying inside and around the door
latch no more alert or chime. It’s been quite now for the past three days.
Thanks so much!
I sprayed 4 times into the passenger side door and opened and slammed the
door 5 times fast. Wasnt until I shut the door with considerable force that
it dislodged.
OMG…Thank You…trying to sell my truck and that did the trick. They were
using it for a 200 decrease.
This problem just took over my life this weekend! I tried WD40 and am still
having the problem. The worst part is trying to figure out WHICH door is
having the issue.
WORKED LIKE A CHARM !!!! … THANKS …
me2 – ive had the issue for over a year now and it had been previously
fixed at the dealership but ofcourse they didn’t tell me this little trick
– wasn’t worth paying to fix – I just came inside and BOOM it worked!!! wow
and wow! thank you so much!!! keep posting these gems!
COOL WITH THE PB BLASTER IT DID WORK I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY 03
NAVIGATOR AN IT DID WORK . THANKS
wd40?
Thank you so much !! Worked for me too 🙂 .
Worked for me! That light and chime were driving me nuts. All I had on hand
was Windex, and it worked fine. Thanks from Michigan.
Great! Thank you for posting this. I have the same problem with my (2003
Ford Expedition). I looked all over for the sensor and had no idea it was
built into the lock mechanism. Thanks again!
It worked for my Ford Taurus 2000, too! I thank you, @Autotechviewpoint!
WORKED FOR ME THANX PAL. AM HAPPY
Thanks man worked for me hahaha
I love you it worked on my 03 expedition
Thank you so much for the tip on spraying cleaner into the door lock
mechanism
LA, CALIFORNIA It worked great for my 2003 Navigator. The running boards
would stay in the open position because the truck thought the door was
open. Used WD40 and fixed the problem. Thanks for the tip.
2003 Expedition. Sprayed all the locks with a half can of WD40 three days
ago. Tonight the light went off and my interior lights/auto locks work
correctly now. Thanks for the tip!
That sucks, sorry to hear that but ya gotta try, just in case!
Again… Thank you…. WD-40 worked like a charm for me. Spend hundreds on
replacing the sensor…. and bought a $2 can of lube and fixed my problem
instantly.
You don’t understand how happy I am I had just purchased the SUV and the
interior lights were annoying and it not being able to lock right but now
its good as new no annoying light
NO Way!!! I’m trying this today i’ll get back to you
Wife came home with the “door ajar” message and interior lights on and
wasn’t looking forward to take it to the dealer to be fixed. Found this
video, went out and sprayed WD40 and within a minute, problem fixed! Thanks
much sir!
Another satisfied customer. I was in the process removing the door panel on
my ’98 Ranger when I realized I didn’t have a star bit for the window
crank. So I wanted to try a different tactic and ran across your tip. A
basic house cleaner did the job on this 15 year old, 175,000 mile trck.
Thank you.
Thanks very helpful 🙂
You sir are a Genius! Weeks of problems, days of pouring through
forums..You nailed it. This also solved the dreaded alarm in the middle of
the night problem as the factory alarm uses the door sensors as well. Wind
was setting the sticking switch off. THANKS!
Wow! It actually worked! Thanks for the tip. I’ve having this problem for
quite sometime.
@hp11208 Sure or PB Blaster, everyone has their favorite that they swear
by… 🙂
Thank You!!!
could possibly for cleaning purposes, but a lube would still be better, let
us know.
Thanks for the video
it totally worked for me thanx man!!!
worked for me with WD 40. My PB blaster is almost all gone due to rear
rotors being stuck!
My Father bought his Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer 10 years ago and we had
this problem since the day we bought it.. and i just fixed it! Thank You
Soo much!
I can’t believe how easy this was, thank you so much, mechanics aren’t
always fair with women and your video saved me a bundle….. THANKS SOOOOOO
MUCH!!!!!!!!
That is great to hear, glad to save you cash, and headache
Another tip, if you cant fix it right away just hit the reset button when
the door ajar error message is up and that will allow you to read mileage
and see everything else on the message center.
