Standard Ignition Door Jamb Switch P/N:DS-117
Keep your interior courtesy lighting and door-ajar warning responding correctly with the Standard Ignition Door Jamb Switch DS-944.

A door jamb switch senses whether the door is open or closed through a spring-loaded plunger, then completes the circuit that activates the dome and courtesy interior lights and signals the door-ajar warning. When the original switch wears out, that circuit can behave erratically.
