Had the same thing happen to my 98 B4000. My brother, a mechanic where I bought the truck, had to take the passenger door panel off, and then had to adjust the door sensor near the latch. That was in 2004. Now the OD light just started blinking.

Had the same problem when I purchased my 98 B4000. The door indication light would stay on. The dealer took the truck into have it looked at. I was fortunate as my brother was a mechanic there. I watched him take the door panel off, and he then adjusted a sensor near the door latch from the inside. That worked for a couple years, and now the door open alarm comes on when a passenger leans against the door, same thing again as before. If taking the panel off, be careful as the bottom part of the panel can break at the part that pushes into the door frame.

WD-40 sprayed into the locking mechanism will fix this problem. It is a common problem on all Ford and Mazda vehicles.
