Default '95 Integra: Door ajar indicator on gauge cluster staying on!

It bothers my eyes to see this red logo in instrument panel at all times! Have tried to disconnect door switches then reconnect as well but not a bit has changed!!!

Perhaps rear cargo hatch has sensor switch that I am not knowing about undergoing malfunction?

How must I fix this error?

Try to close one door and push the other sensor in to test if the door is not pushing the sensor far enough. You can always take the bulb out. BTW, the hatch sensor does not cause the door ajar indicator to light on beacuse there is a different indicator for the hatch.

Have tried this suggestion and progress was not made.

Did however figure out when turning off radio, indicator turns off! What does this mean?

Lol some wire must be messed up, just like my brother's integra, he put the seat belt on and the curise control light come on. The previous owner messed up the wire.

Oh, thanks to you for your responses. Previous owner was a very snakey character - cobra sneaky.

Yes, I'm understanding wiring is issue, but who knows maybe what/where this wire is exactly??

Since its probably one of the Sensors that are malfunctioning... U might wanna take each of them out and use a Volt Meter to see if there is any power running through. Cause it has to send off some kind of electric signal to indicate the light on ur dash. Hope this helps!

Have replaced the blown 'cabin light fuse' and problem was solved!
