Well mines given up the ghost, so now have the bleep every 20 mins , and air suspension will not operate as thinks door open all the time , took panel off and sprayed with wd40 worked ok for 3 days but now died , so is there a way of just deactivating the switch, my cars alarm was disconnected years ago so all on key, and do not use interior lights as usually drains battery after about 3 days , even so I love the old girl , just passed mot first time so it's a keeper even with all quirks , so if there's a way please let me know or is it off to garage to find new catch

Cheers all

Just fit a new latch mechanism or check the wiring and microswitch.

Fourth post down on this link describes what the issue is. It's not the microswitch but the crappy plastic components in the latch wearing out.

Door latch

Mine was doing the same during the heatwave but fine when cooler. I've ordered a replacement latch to fix it for good.
