Door open warning

bravem01 · 04-28-2012, 03:29 AM

I keep getting a drivers door open warning when out on a 30 min plus journey. Door is locked shut when I set off and it takes some time before it warns me.
It does'nt seem to be triggered by Surrey pot holes etc. then keeps reminding me after a few mins. The interior light doesnt come on. Dealer was useless and said nothing found on computer!
Is there a sensor in the lock mechanism that needs adjusting?

Does the display indicate which door is open? Mine does.

As I said, the drivers door warning light plus the bong but no interior light. It does not come on until well into a journey.?????????????

Arrrggghhh I must learn to read LOL!

I would say there has to be a problem with the door latch unit itself - there will be a microswitch inside that tells the car when the door is open.....this has to be faulty.
