warning light stays on
Dash warning light indicating open door, boot or bonnet is on permanently when car is being used even though everything is closed. It's a 2001 Fiesta and it had been unused for a few months which flattened the battery -- car is running fine other than this problem -- any ideas what might be causing this light to stay on ?
Thanks in advance

Door switches are on the negative side of the electical circuit (most switches operate on the positive side of the circuit) so any fault or short circuit will result in the interior light (if it's set to go on automatically when a door is opened) and the warning light being illuminated.
