Keep your interior courtesy and dome lighting responding correctly with the Standard Ignition Door Jamb Switch (DS-844). This plunger-actuated switch senses whether a door is open or closed and switches the interior-lighting circuit accordingly. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2001 Ford Explorer, 2003 Ford Explorer Sport, 1990-1997 Ford Taurus, 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer, and 1990-2005 Mercury Sable.

  • Copper alloy conductors: provide superior electrical conductivity with low resistive losses.
  • 100% tested: each switch is verified for both mechanical and electrical switching performance.
  • Robust build: high-grade plastic and metal in a black housing, made to meet the demands of the service professional.
  • Connector details: single rectangular female connector with two male blade terminals, a bolt-mount design, and a 4.064 mm (0.16 in) plunger. Wiring harness not included.

The switch bolts to the door and toggles as the door opens and closes. If a failed door jamb switch is the cause of interior lights that stay on, fail to come on, or flicker, this part replaces it. Some applications use two switches, so quantity varies by vehicle; it's sold individually, so order the number your vehicle requires. Country of origin: United States.
