I need HELP, In rainy & damp weather (2) things happen. First, while driving I get a message (Door Ajar) then when I stop and get out of car and set the alarm, in a few minutes the alarm goes off. I have sprayed the door locks with CRC electrical cleaner/conditioner several times. Sometines the only thing I can do is leave the car un-locked.
It's a 1996 Mark Vlll
Any input will help,
Thanks Bill, :confused:

Maybe you have a leak somewhere, like in the weatherstripping or a hidden draining problem.
On a dry day, try squirting water around in different areas to replicate the problem and pinpoint the compromised area.

I wouldn't leave it unlocked ever, you can always just push down the lock plunger without activating the electronics with the switches or remotes.

i would also... just a funny thought... double check the hood switch for the alarm..... i mean its also something that can set the alarm off... if its getting bad that is.
