ok so i have a crx, 89 dx to be exact. the passenger door is the problem. everytime i hit a bump or a left turn it would beep and the light on the dash came on. i tried to adjust the metal hook thing the door grabs onto wen it closes. today i even took out the switch and grounded that wire and the problem went away.... so i thought. i went to the store for beer, hit a pothole and ithe light came on along with the beep. i reach over and tug on the passenger door and the beeping goes away. any ideas?

Unscrew the 1 screw on the black tab, clean off the ****. Usually there's some crap corroded on it. Clean it, then put it back on. Also if the tab has broken down a little just rap some electrical tape on it to make it wider to press the tab farther to not trigger the sensor.

GUH i thought i was the only one with this stupid issue.

crazyboy

already did it. the sensor is out of the question, its removed and still does it

crazyboy

well i just want to get everything working right. is there another sensor on the door?

crazyboy

I have the same problem anyone know

clean both door switches
i'm thinking maybe it's a different bad ground?
or more possibly there was an alarm previously installed in the car, and they used a stupid connector that is grounding out on the chassis.

crazyboy

i cleaned them both and i dont think its a ground cuz wen it beeps i can pull on the passenger door and it will go off but theres no sensor on there! im thinkin maybe theres one in the door, or the wire has a short

cmon these cars are 20+ years old and nobody has solved this problem??

I was browsing through a couple of thread much like yours and I found where people would hit the brakes the light would come on, supposedly the horn fuse under the hood was blown and they replaced that and it fixed it?
