Door Jamb Switches

[markbob]

Hey all....

my 69 Coronet is well under way.....I have an issue with the door jamb switches....

the drivers side works fine, the pax side turns the dome light on regardless of whether the door is closed or not....I will have to check the switch for proper function.....

my problem is that each door has a hole in the jamb area and when the doors are closed, the jamb switches enter the door, preventing the door from compressing the switch...
I remember one of the doors had a small metal piece which was taped onto the door jamb....but what actually goes there to allow the switches to properly function?

any thoughts?

thanks,

Mark

Sound like someone had the wrong switches installed (too long) and that's why there is holes in the door. Should not be holes in the door.

Or, over the years it wore a hole in there. I've seen that as well.

Weld them up closed, they'll be fine.
