The WD 40 to all doors latching mechanism worked ! I used a screwdriver to rapidly simulate the open and closing of the latch.
It is possible the door switch is bad, or having issues.
Probably a bad door switch.

It is a sticky sensor in the door latch mechanism. Spray it w/ WD-40 and follow up with a dose of silicone spray. Open/close doors several times and it should be ok. If you have a problem with 1 door the other 3 are sure to follow---DO THIS TO ALL 4 DOORS!!!!!!!!!

door ajar switch is usually the problem switch is a little button on the door jam that opens the circuit to the light when the door closes
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.

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..
