| Yeah... Spray some WD-40 in the latches and then open and close the door a few times and you should be OK... |

| I am not sure why, and hopefully this does not come off as biast, but FORD has had a real problem with those stupid door switches. They fail all the time.... and what is worse, they are the biggest pain to replace sometimes.... I have the same problem on my '98 pickup, I just ignore it. Someday I will try toi fix it. It has been that way since 1999 so now I do not even see the light...LOL.... I am hoping with it being on this long, it will eventually burn out, then I do not have to worry about it...HAHA anyways, if spraying it does not work, I would look at the switch, cheap but a pain....
