Only one bad door switch should do that

The 20 min time out is the GEM or Body Module,
which is normal only because you have a bad switch,
otherwise it goes to sleep when either front door opens

Put radio on & open a door,the radio should go off
& kill the time delay if no issues exist

There is a relay switch in each door. It is the relay in one of the the driver side doors. The switch is going bad.

SOURCE: 97 lincoln continental says door is ajar.

the door switches are part of the door latch, the easiest way to remedy this is to spray liberal amounts of WD40 into each latch and open and close the each door a few times, this should loosen up the latch and solve your problem.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: 2003 LINCOLN TOWNCAR DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOORS CLOSE

yes i agree with ripoff, If you are unable to do it yourself , then I suggest you go to a regular shop, and they should replace it with minimal cost, buy the part for eight dollars and bring it with you to the shop so that all you have to pay is labor, if it is really easy like i suspect you may not be charged at all, or even ask one of the guys if you give them a couple of bucks will they switch it real quick.
hey, I would do it..

SOURCE: all of my doors are closed yet in my 1999 lincoln

Try spraying WD40 directly into the door latches and opening and closing the doors several times. Usually this will free a sticking door ajar switch.

My 2007 Lincoln MXZ drivers door will not shut. It seems the latch is not latching on. Could the latch just be broken?

not an answer but possibly related question. battery runs down quickly (overnite) no, non-factory accessories, door closed so interior lights are NOT on. could electrical problem be related to door not staying latched closed?

How do I remove the driver side interior door panel on a 2003 Lincoln Navigator/

You don't need to remove the panel. Just spray the latch on the outside with the door open. I would use liquid wrench and open & close the door at least 20 times after it's soaked for a half hour. Don't be afraid to slam it. Also, one time I had to let it soak in overnight before opening/closing it multiple times again.

Find the lamp push button on each door.
Open one door, and only one door (or tailgate).
Push the lamp button IN at that door. If light goes out, then that particular push switch needs adjustment or replacement.
Cl;ose door and open another door. Push button IN.
Keep doing this until you find faulty door push button.

My trucks computer tells me there's a door ajar

check each door jamb button (can't think of the correct term). close all doors except one... push the button manually... does the interior light go off... if it does move on to the next door. that will narrow down where the problem is... or it should. it also could be the relay for the interior lights located on the fuse panel under the dash.
