Steve285 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 My door open warning light keeps flicking on and off. I've checked all my doors, including boot and there's nothing open. I've slammed the boot and the light stays off for a while but then comes back on. Any ideas what causes the light to flicker? MK1 Focus, X Reg, 134K miles.

Stoney871 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Sounds like your boot light switch is playing up. Check it for corrosion as that may be shorting the contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSussex Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Try the cure all; “WD40” on all the door switch contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the rubber 'gaitor' which carries the wiring from the bodyshell to the tailgate. Wiring fractures here due to flexing with repeated opening and closing of the tailgate. Just pull back the gaitor and inspect the wiring for failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
