So the problem is the car thinks the door is always open that's why the lights don't go off and it makes that beep.

Unfortunately, resetting the window stops is not going to fix the wiring problem your stereo installer has caused.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link

So we plugged it in thinking that solved the problem..but not.

POST 2Original post

The beep means that there's a fault that's preventing the car from being secured. The beep plus your interior lights staying on suggests that one of the door switches - or the wiring for one of the door switches - has been compromised and needs to be fixed.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK guys the installer came. We realized it was the driver door as the window didn't drop or go up that small amount when you open close. That switch was not plugged in. So we plugged it in thinking that solved the problem..but not. SAME EXACT problem. We took out the passenger door and saw that it was all ok. We went to driver door and it all seems to be connected. So the problem is the car thinks the door is always open that's why the lights don't go off and it makes that beep. So what else can it be!!? My installer thinks its the whole "learn window" process. I googled and tried that (Windows down 10 sec...window up hold 10 sec) but no. I am thinking its a microswitch. FYI the alarm ground in the double din is not effected. Its not grounded. At this point im frustrated and stumped. If you guys think its the whole learn process can you please let me know the exact window learn directions. Or if you think its the micoswitch..which one can it be!? From what im reading there are 3? My installer is willing to install them if I can bring them. Otherwise this will have to go to a indy and I know it might be expensive!

Take it to the indy who knows what he is doing, and make your installer pay. He screwed it up, right?

POST 6Original post

Roll the driver window all the way up. Hold the "Up" button down for 10 seconds. Repeat for the passenger side. Unfortunately, resetting the window stops is not going to fix the wiring problem your stereo installer has caused.

Unsolicited advice: Don't let your "installer" perform any more work on your car, since he/she does not appear to know what he/she is doing.
