Door Ajar light staying on amongst other problems.

[Black92LX]

Door Ajar light is staying on, my inside driver's door lock button does not work, my driver's side puddle light does not work, my keyless entry pad will unlock the car but will not lock the car.

I did the little test by opening the door after setting the alarm and all the doors trip the alarm except the driver's door.

I took a look at all the wiring but could not locate any problems.
So I replaced the switch

did you read past the thread title???

I already did both of those and pointed that out in my post.

Easy big fella. Yes I know you said you didn't find any broken wires. However, you did not say how thoroughly you checked. I would recommend checking really, really well for broken/damaged wires. When I fixed mine, I was about to give up but dug deeper and found a broken wire.

I had this issue and fixed it by spraying the latches inside all the doors with wd40 worth a try taking everyone has a can lying around somewhere. The entire car went absolutely haywire when it thought the one door was opening and closing.
