the door ajar indicator light and the dome light stay on 90 percent of the time even after the truck is locked. Seems like something is loose. The door ajar light sometimes comes on when I'm driving on a rough road. And worst of all I can't find a switch or sensor on the door jams. If anyone has a solution please answer.

The light stayed on all the time I tried to clean and oil the latches. Took the truck to a local mechanic who got further in depth and took the door apart and checked the wiring harness to see what the problem was. He couldn't find it so I took it to the dealer. The tech knew what was the problem immediately he said the latches had to be replaced. He replaced them and since then the problem has been rectified. It cost roughly $200.00 but I believe I could have gotten it done cheaper if I took more time to shop around.
