In some cases customers may experience an ajar light on when the drivers door is fully closed. When using pin 13 on the factory 14-way connector to access the drivers door ajar circuit, a 70 mA maximum coil current relay with an integrated clamping diode is required to protect against damage to the door latch. Failure to install this correctly will result in repeat warnings that the drivers door latch / door ajar light will remain on until it is compliant with police modifiers bulletin P-032, which can be found on the Police body builders site (https://fordbbas.com/publications).","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10241598-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10241598-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10241598","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null},{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER POLICE INTERCEPT","year_from":2020,"year_to":2023,"match":"base","vehicle_ids":["2020_ford_explorer","2021_ford_explorer","2022_ford_explorer","2023_ford_explorer"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
