Hey guys. This is my first time posting and my first owned car lol. Anyway, I have a 1991 Honda civic hatchback and I am having some problems right now. My passanger door is messed up. When the car is on and when the door is closed, it still says it's open. At first, I didn't see it a big of a problem, But I notice everytime I get in the car, my battery is dead. So I assuming this door problem is draining my battery and killing it. I already had two people look at it (just some friends with honda's too) and they both say it's a wiring problem.

So what I'm asking is, does anyone know how to disable the light that says the doors is still open and if I do that, is the car still going believe it need the doors closed or does anyone know anyway I can fix the wiring problem? Like where in the car I need to look for the wires and fix the problem myself. Kudo's for whoever helps me lol. Thanks people.

well, there is a lil button in the door jam, if you pull that out and unplug it, it will not notice the door is open or closed. Now, that shouldn't kill a battery, when the car is off it shouldn't have any power there, you probably have a problem somewhere else in the wiring or just a bad battery that wont hold a charge.
