power issue

[tommyj50]

on my 2002 f250 powerstroke truck when i turn the key off the radio an power would stay on in the truck till i opened the door then it would shut down. well now on the drivers door only it doesnt shut it off anymore. i have to lean over to the passenger door to get the inside power to shut down. does anyone know what i need to do to get this fixed. i really dont have the money to take to the dealership. thanks ahead of time for any help that can be provided.

Have you checked the door switch? Do the interior lights turn on when you open the door? If not, then a likely culprit could be the door switch is bad or stuck.

are u talking about the door adar switch? where can i locate this at?

Correct, referring to the door ajar switch. I believe it's on the inside door jam closest to the front fender. I'm in my Jeep today so won't be able to verify until I get home.
