I have just bought a 1996 Ford LX escort and the door ajar light stays on on the dashboard.

I have checked that all the doors are shut and that the knobs (that go in and out as the door opens or closes) move freely.

However the light will not go off

Any suggestions?

Errm, maybe but how would i tell where the problem lies

One of the switched at the doors is faulty - they rely on an earth contact being made at the rear of the switch ( or at least they did the last time I looked at one ) - unscrew them one by one and make good the contacts.
