I had a similar problem with a Continental years ago. Try:

1) spray door latches liberally with WD-40.

2) open and close door a few times

3) spray with a silicone protector

Good luck

Why wont the interior lights go off in your 1997 ford explorer?

I'm not a mechanic / technician but on a 1997 Ford Explorer I believe that if the gauge panel dimmer switch ( to the right of your headlight switch ) is rotated all the way up it will turn on all the interior courtesy lights when the doors are closed Also , is the " DOOR AJAR " warning light on in your dash to the left of the fuel gauge , if so either a door or the liftgate is slightly ajar or a door ajar switch is sticking , I believe that will also keep the interior lights on

Windstar interior lights wont go on?

One thing that will cause this is when a door-ajar warning goes without fixing.My Windstar rear hatch showed as ajar for quite some time - after a period, this caused the interior lights to be disabled.Flooding the hatch latch mechanisms with spray lubricant, i.e., WD-40, cleared the false ajar warning, and the interior lights automatically starting working again.See "Related Questions" below for more


Where can you find a diagram for the door ajar warning light to repair it when it stays on for no reason?

Check if the fuse for your interior lights isn't blown. On many cars the Door Ajar light will come on when there's no power to the interior lights. The dashlight then grounds itself through the interior lights. It depends on the car made. for example Taurus, just lubricate(real good) the lock with wd40, will take care of the problem. some cars have sensors will lock automatically when you close door then will LOCK automatically. if one of the locks is jamed the ajar warning come on. Easiest way lubricate all doors lock you will fine. Good luck

What would make the Door Ajar light to stay on and interior lights stay on when all doors are shut in a 97 Expedition?
