My 2002 supercrew has a brain of it's own?
[QUOTE=lees99f150]Since people are always asking how to fix their dome light or door ajar light from staying on. I thought i would make a post showing how to fix it.
After a heavy rain my interior lights and box light will stay on sometimes I can hear an od buzzing noise that seems to be coming from under the dash drivers side. Did I mention it has a sunroof and there is water dripping from the [ HOLY CRAP ] handels on the A piller any one else with this problem?

Man..you guys are great. I pulled the relay in my '97 3 door cause I couldn't figure out why the heck my dome light wouldn't turn off. Tried the WD-40, reinserted the relay, closed the doors and lo and behold..the dome light shut off!!!!! And to think I spent the better part of five months fumbling in the dark ...lol
Now, if I can just figure out why my analog odometer quit working (including the trip) My truck will be back to 100%........I will research that here on the board before posting that question though.

How about the door lock?
Alright, try this one. When opening the passenger door after shutting the engine off, the dome light doesn't turn on, the radio still stays on and it remains on until the driver's door is opened. In all of this, the power lock on the passenger door doesn't work at all. Door open or closed, engine on or off, hot brunette in the seat or not....no door lock or unlock. It makes the noise and it "tries" but doesn't quite cut it. To me it sounds like a switch problem. Do you all think the wd40/brake cleaner trick will work? Oh, and fyi, the driver's door operates as it should.

On a 2001 supercrew,we did the wd40 deal first. Then changed out the door sensor switches on all 4 doors. Still no luck and the door ajar/buzzer and inside lights come on most of the time.. We have adjusted all the door latches , checked fuzes and relays but again no fix..
Anyone have any suggestions? The truck has an auto start and auto door locks.. If you sit in the truck and keep hitting the door locks, the problem will come and go.. Can it be a door lock actuator?

I end up having to just let the radio go for 10 mins till it automaticaly shuts down. I don't think its a problem inside the door as it would have to be in all the doors. any ideas??
The dome lights do work when you turn them on manualy or press unlock on the remote. so I know the bulbs etc are good

I AM HAVING A SIMILAR PROBLEM, BUT THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR INDICATORS ANYWHERE. My 2000 f150 starts dinging about 15 seconds after I start it. It dings 5+5+5+5+5 (5 sets of 5) then stops for 30 mins. or until I stop then start it up again. I have tried the wd40 and looking for the wires suggested under the steering column with no luck. I can't find this problem addressed anywhere. Anyone else have this problem???? PLEASE HELP
