Drivers side low beam does not work. Both high beams work fine. I replaced the bulb and the low beam still does not work. Any ideas?

Is it getting any DC voltage when you turn it on?

Some cars are fused in funny ways. Check the fusing, then do as burdawg says and check for voltage at the connector as it plugs into the light...sometimes corrosion gets in there.

My door is "a door", not "ajar" !!!

I have a Ford Expedition. The interior lights stay lit, and the dummy lights say there is "a door ajar". I've narrowed it down to the rear passenger side door. I cannot find any switch on the door jam, and am not sure where to look inside the door, or frame. Does anybody know where to find the sticky switch before I pull apart all of the trim molding? THings like that usually upset my wife because I never put it back the right way.

That is a thought. That door also has a child safety switch that will lock itself at times. Any ideas on what to look at, or how to test?
Thanks for any help.

sorry no, I have just heard that this is where that dome light switch is. I'd suggest going to the Explorer topic (see make/model drop down window to left of this page) and then once there use the "search" feature and plug in "door switch" or "short in dome light".

yes, the door ajar switch is in the latch, I have "fixed" several of them in the past (mostly on taurus's) by just spraying some penetrating fluid in the latch, and working it for a bit, in fact, out of the dozen or so I've seen, Ive only had to actually replace 1, dont even take the panal off, just spray directly into the latch and work it back and forth.

94 Jeep Grand Cherokee Electrical Puzzle (Radio - Interior lights problem)

When any door is opened or the dash lights dimmer switch is pushed to ON, the interior lights come on but many other things don't work - radio turns off, pwr locks, map lights don't work. Another piece of this puzzle; when the key is turned off then turned on again later, the radio resets to 12:00 with the stored radio stations still there, but not any "recently" saved/stored radio stations. The radio is the original unit and I'm not aware of any electrical issues from the previous owner.
