Default Drdsp door latch microswitch thread.

Not being very computer savvy, i have been trying to find(without success) Drdsp's walk through on removing the door latch and replacing the door ajar microswitch. Is it just a case of going through the threads until i find it, or is there a quicker way. Many thanks.. Anthony.

The drivers window will drop to open the door ,but will not return when the door is closed and the door open message is lit, so i was going to change the microswitch and see if that cures the problem.

Finally got around to changing the microswitch on the drivers door, all is well and functioning. The original switch looked like it had suffered from water ingress. The job probably took a couple of hours, not difficult to do just fiddly. Really pleased with the result. Thanks for the info.
