Door Sensor, Door Open Light Remains On.

[__PhaseShiftDown]

The door open light won't go away on my 32 GTR. I've noticed about a month back that the cabin dome light would flicker on and off when I close the door.

I have checked both door sensor and they works fine. The boot light turns off when I shut the boot, so thats working too, although I don't think the 32s have a boot sensor?

Just wondering if any one else on this forum have experienced this problem? There must be an exposed wire somewhere thats grounding sensors. Anyone knows how does the wiring go? I have a feeling it might be my alarm system.

all i know about the door switch is, as you probably already know, when the door is opened the switch moves out and it grounds the wire on the back of it to the chasis. i'd say your right in thinking that one of the door switch wires either has, damaged insulation and is grounding itself out somewhere. or the connection for the alarm wasn't re-insulated properly and is grounding itself.

to check if its one of the door switch lines that is grounding out. when you have the problem, pull the door switch out and use a multimeter set up for a continuity test, and test between the wire at the back of the switch to the chasis. if you get continuity then that line is grounding out somewhere. then just trace the wire back and see if you can find where.

I know on the R32 GTS-T there is a boot sensor to. I had the same problem when I got R32 I replaced both door sensors and the problem was still there. What ended up being the issue on my car was the wire that runs to the boot sensor had broken so once I fixed that no more problems. The wire for the boot sensor runs under the drivers door sill garnish (unsure if that is correct name but the plastic garnish near the bottom of the door that says skyline) behind the bottom mount for the seatbelts and through the rear seat. My wire was broken behind the drivers side bottom seatbelt mount.
