• Position on Vehicle: Mounted in the door jamb, boot (trunk) lid, engine-lid or other body‐panel opening where it triggers the courtesy lamp or door-open warning system.
• Applications: Ideal replacement when the original switch fails (interior lights don’t work, door-open indicator stuck, boot light not responding), or when restoring the vehicle’s body electrical system to original specification.
A functioning door/boot contact switch is vital for correct interior lighting, warning chimes, door ajar indicators and overall vehicle convenience. A defective switch can lead to interior lamps being permanently off/on, battery drain, or door-open warnings not working. Replacing a switch restores correct electrical behaviour, safeguards against unintended battery drain and maintains the vehicle’s original functionality.
When and why to replace:
• Door or boot interior lamp does not activate when opening the panel.
• Battery drains overnight and circuits point to faulty door-open logic.
• During door/boot panel removal or wiring work where switch is disturbed or lost.
• On older vehicles where original switches may have aged or internal contacts have degraded.
