Door ajar switch
Hi all,
I have a tonnopro and I'm tired of the tailgate falling open and loosing stuff. I've looked for the door ajar switch but can't find it on my 97 F150 2 door. Anybody know where the switch is or where in the harness I can tie the tailgate to? Thanks! |
That switch is inside the door latch itself, pull the door panel either side you will see it on the bottom of the latch and 2 wires going into it.
|
I'd fix whatever is allowing the tailgate to drop.

Chickenwire, It's my 16 year old. ;) Tonnopro also doesn't let you check the gate :(
Rnlcomp, is what i am asking easy to accomplish or do I need another alternative? |

The tailgates are easier to repair than adding a switch. Sounds like you need a handle, or possibly cleaning the locks and oiling them.

Doesn't appear to be a repair problem - gg said it's his 16 year old (apparently not closing the tailgate or not closing it completely.)
And those of us who've had 16 year olds know the only way to fix them is to wait for them to become 22 year olds. If you don't kill them before then. |

Been lucky so far but my luck is running out. |
