The door ajar error shows up frequently. So I replaced all the door ajar switches for all doors and the liftgate glass. I thought I solved the problem. But it showed up again, especially if I drove on bumpy roads, and I usually heard some subtle loose liftglass moving sound. So I stopped the car. I open and close each door to see if it kills the door ajar message. As I suspected, the liftglass is the one causing the door ajar error. Since I already replaced that switch, it might be some mechanical mounting problem with the liftglass. Ford issused some service guides on this mechanical design problem. I don't want to repair the glass now, since, for me, it still feels safe.
So what I want to do, is to bypass the ajar switch in the liftglass. It's an over design by ford. If I splice the wire together, will the car think the door is closed? or the opposite.
Thanks for reading.
