Hey, so my 94 St is havin a small electrical issue. My Open Door light stays on 24/7. Even with car off and both doors shut. I checked both sensors and did everything I can to stop it...but the light stays on. Is there any way to override this. Possible a wire to cut or a fuse to pull?

Thanks guys

There is a simple fix for this but it's dangerous....and when I say it's dangerous I mean you can no longer leave your keys inside the car and shut the door and have the dummy features NOT lock the car on you.


But at any rate,these sensors are $30 from the dealership but what you can do is take the Black rubbery sensor with the push bolt and unbolt it with a 10mm socket and CUT the long wire that it's attached to from the inside where the white plastic is. This will turn off the sensor until you can get a new one.

Same thing happened to me in NY and even with my doors clocked when I'd try to lock my car with my car alarm they wouldn't ever close and it would KILL my battery.

Simple,easy and fast fix for you. Hope I helped.
