If u have a 1998 ford ranger, they r known for the switches going bad (All the time) replace the door switch, it isn't easy either. U should have noticed the dash light warning for an open door also. Plus, the dome light will come on too with that switch bad. what I did was for a temp. fix. take the fuse out.. Good luck partner.

Hello, Friend
I had a friend that had the same issue. I had the same issue with my 99 Bonneville the outside door handle and the door latch itself where sticking because of dirt or some other substance. I kept my car very clean and I also cleaned the door jambs after every wash, but still there was a sticking in the latch and handle.
I could be driving down the road and the lights would be on. and I would open the window (with the doors locked and flick the outside handle and the interior lights would turn off. then I knew it was the outside handle that had a censor that was sticking. Why does the out side handle even have a censor? Good question. It seems the more sophisticated our cars become the more probability of issues from the littlest things.
Thank you

The door sensors will need to be replaced. A screws can be removed and then a wire can be taken of and you then can replace the switch.
