There are sensors inside the doors attached to the door latch, they are defective and causing this issue.

SOURCE: My "door ajar" light came

The door switch is in the door, that is why you cannot see it, and they are troublesome. I wish they would have never taken them out of the door jam, when they were there, they rarely had issues. You will need to either take the door panel off to get to it, or take it to a shop to have it done. It is a dealer item only.

I have a 2002 Pontiac Montana both low beams n both fog lights went out same time after hitting a bump, well my dad had van running and was pulling fuses on passenger side door and now it don't auto lock...

Take your father down to the local pub and leave him there then take the car to an accredited auto electrician to have it fixed NO honestly this is the best idea as it will cost less eventually to have it fixed professionally

Door ajar lite comes on and the alarm keeps dinging all doors are in line and closed how to make the ding stop?

first of all, you may have one or more door buttons that are bad. spray all door switches with a good spray lubricant and see if this helps. if not, find bad one and replace it. if door switches are bad door ajar light will think door is still open.

Looking for a free link where i can find schamatic for electrical

Does the door ajar light come on when it makes the dinging sound? If so you probably have a stuck door sensor in the drivers door. The drivers door is the only one, I believe, that makes the dinging sound when it is opened when the ignition is on. Spray some WD-40 into the door latching mechanism and try to free up the micro switch, this is not a bad idea as preventative maintenance even if you are not having a problem.

Door ajar and interior lights won't go off!

open the door and there will be a small piece of plastic that can be pushed into and out of the door jamb. You will need to replace that because it is not telling the computer the door is shut.
