Door open sensor/switch

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know where I can get a supply of the little push-in door switches (the ones that tell you when the door is open)? A couple of them on my Bongo aren't working and I'm getting fed up with my alarm arming itself when the doors are already open.

Thanks in advance,

John

Sometimes all it need's is to take the pin switch off and clean the contacts. 13 year old bongo's just might need a little tender loving care.

From what i remember, the door switch earth's to the body using one screw. If they come lose that's all that's needed to lose the ground for the cab courtesy lights..

I know what yer saying about the alarm resetting, #-o my tailgate latch switch was dodgy till i gave it a good clean out.. Was clogged with what looked like old news paper! :wink:

My passenger door switch stops working every 6 months or so - just needs a spray with WD40 or similar & a good bit of working in & out.

Thanks for the tips, Guys. It sounds like a bit of cleaning might be worth a try, so I'll get the Mrs onto it straight away. ;-)
