  • Weird Problem

    My door ajar came on yesterday while driving and won't go off now?
    All the doors are shut tight?
    Also, when I start up and put my lights on the light for the temp control area does not come on for about 10 min or so?

    Anyone come across this?

    Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

    Sometimes door/ajar sensors can become stuck due to ice. Since it is wicked cold, I vote for this possiblity.

    Not sure about the light problem, possibly a fuse or electrical short?

        Werd. What they said.

        As for the temp control light you have a loose bulb or the bulb is ready to crap the bed. I guess you'll find out when it stops working all together.

            The lights are pretty fragile and are under $1 and 2 minutes of your time to fix yourself (I did mine a few weeks ago). See link here which includes illustrated pics and a few suggestions to make the job easy (I used some old aquarium tubing):
