Hello,
Small but annoying problem, maybe someone can help.
The rear hatch on my 2001 Pathfinder doesn’t always close tightly, I have to slam it pretty hard. But once I know it’s closed, the door open light/interior ceiling lights will stay on/flicker on and off while driving, indicating that it’s still not closed.
I tried adding WD40 to the latch mechanism in the hatch and I also moved the latch on the body closer out (toward the bumper) to help with the catching of the door, and it helped for a while but it the lights still flicker. The door is fully closed, but the lights will flicker, especially on hills (and I live in the Bay Area, so lots of hills and light flickers).
I don’t see any switch that causes it to go on an off like the door switch, but obviously there is something that tells the car that is closed
What am I missing?
Thanks!
