Whenever the trunk is closed my door/trunk light stays on along with the light in the trunk which has just drained my battery. And i know its not my doors because the interior lights turn off. only the trunk light stays on and does not shut off can someone tell me how to replace the trunk ajar switch?
The switch is located in the latch of the trunk, make sure the wire connector to the switch is not pulled loose or otherwise damaged.

The sensor for the lights is in the door latch spray some GOOD penetrant in the door latch (WD 40 IS NOT A PENETRATING OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) open and shut the door several times after you let the penetrant soak a bit Liquid wrench, PB Blaster, BG Penetrant, are good

The door switches sometimes stick. Spray some WD-40 or similar lube on them.

If I am not mistaken, the plunger is located in the door with the latch. Most of the time you can just pull the door panel off and adjust the switch. After opening and closing the door, they get knocked out of adjustment. I sincerely hope that this helped you. Take care and best wishes.

Take some WD40 and open the doors and spray a liberal amount into each of the door latches. Then open and close the doors firmly several times. This will work most of the time to unstick the ajar switches.
