Re: '98 Ford Taurus Door Ajar Fuse and or Dome Light? by Phil Feinstein
Post New Message Typically, the fuse box in under the dash on the driver's side or in the side of the dash on the driver's side (you see it when you look at the dash while you have the door open).

The fuse to pull out would be the one for the "Dome light" circuit, but you will also disable or cause problems with the factory alarm, the air bag circuit and other related systems. I would recommend fixing the problem rather than pulling the fuse. It's pretty common to have the little pin switches in the door jamb fail and short to ground. I'd check them as well as the light that's supposed to be on for the driver's side footwell when the light for the passenger side is on.

Hope that helps!
