My 1999 Honda Accord ex v6 coupe's door ajar light keeps blinking. It does it randomly and as a result the dome light keeps blinking cauing me to turn it off...it'l go away for a while and then come back...as a result I can't set my Alarm, cuz it will go off randomly...The doors are shut completely, and it even does it when i have the doors open sometimes....Is this a problem with the switch or the Computer itself...and what do i need to do to diagnose/fix it...also this mostly happens when it rains...but it has happened when it's dry too...thank you...

Sounds like a switch problem in the drivers door. Doesn't the lamp point to the door that is causing the problem? It should be a bad door latch or pin switch. Here is how to change the switch out to fix the problem. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
