Why does my screen keep telling me that my door is ajar when there not is it the computer??

ouch, you're on a roll lately!

tell your car its a door not a jar!!! ;)

Common problem, do a search for it and you should find the fix

I'm actually cracking up here! :lol:

sorry, couldn't resist, try some WD-40 into the locking mechanism, not the key lock but the mechanical part that holds the door shut

I'm actually cracking up here! :lol:

yeah, this is too much fun!

Unfortunately I'm at work and when I laugh out loud they notice that I'm not doing work! :shifty:

Pffft. Work is overrated anyways.

yeah, I don't think I want to work anymore........

Bills? I don't like bills, I don't think I'm going to pay those........ :D

ummmmmmmmmmm.........yeeeeeaaaaahhhhhh

Well that's just silly. You can't just not pay the bills. You should only quit working if you can afford to pay the bills. sheesh!

Let me know when they come to sell your stuff. I'll be there to buy your car. :lol:

I always felt put off by forums where members tell me to search... feels cold and impersonal just doesn't seem to be the LvC way.. I always hoped we were not like those other sites.

BlntdEyez Get you can of WD-40 and spray the door latch... it will solve the problem. Keep a small can in the trunk or glove box incase the message comes back again.

Thanks for the post!! Feel free to ask any question whether or not it's been asked before or not. Most LvC members will be happy to answer your questions. Also now you have a remedy to post to the next new LvC member who has this problem.

you can buy my red stapler! :p

I'm sorry to see you feel that way, mespock. Put on your big boy underwear and deal with it! :p

I'm not trying to be an ass, but come on! There are so many threads on that, it isnt even funny. If the poster doesn't have the motivation to do a search before he posts a question, why should I rehash the same thing over and over?

People nowadays think (and some expect) they should be catered to, without having to lift a finger. Yes, we are here to help each other out, and answer questions for people, but IMHO those people need to take some innitiative and do some legwork before posting such questions.

I mean, it's as simple as clicking on 'search", entering some key words, and presto!

I don't mind helping out people in need. Lord knows I wasn't born with Mark VIII knowledge. I too asked. But I did a search before I asked.


you can buy my red stapler! :p

Only if I can get the red staples with it.

we're just having some fun Rich :p

Have you caught on to everything I've said? I'm not sure if you know what a movie I'm referencing? :cool:

Oh yeah, i caught the Office reference. But it's been so long since I saw it, I don't remember the movie well enough to come back with a witty movie related reply.

oh you suck!!!:p

I think that movie should be mandatory for any office type job!

back to heckling the new guys..........:cool:

I don't think i could EVER work in an office job... Hell, I don't think I could ever work in a corporate environment, period.

before one of them goes off on a tirade about how your MarkVIII is not as good as theirs because it is of a different color. Didn't you guys learn anything from Kramer. SHeesh.

I think people just need to get used to everyone's personalities around here and things will be all good........

No I see the fun with Frogman.. he's a great member of LvC... and a lot of fun on this site.

But just like you Joey and I disucssed at Kopper's Kitchen the comment of go search is cold... I'm with Joey.. delete the search command.

I appreciate the warm and fuzzy thought, but didn't your parents teach you about sharing? Share whatever you're smoking! :p

Well.... the problem is, you remove the search function, and one of two or two of two things may happen:

1. People who WANT to search for a topic and can't, may give up on LVC and go to one of the other mark forums because he may need that info "right now" and may not have the luxury of waiting lord knows how long (even if it's as little as an hour) for a reply.


2. Current LvC members may get sick of repeating the same answers over and over and over... and move over to another forum.

I mean, you remove the search function, you might as well remove the how to articles, and the gallery, and... hell, just take the whole forum offline. You see where I'm going with this? After all, we all love to rehash the same answers over and over, right? :/

Boy looks like a DP thread... and here a guy only wanted to learn how to get rid of the Door Ajar Message..

Do this. (http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showpost.php?p=160938&postcount=2)

If that doesn't work, do this. (http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=24406)

I sprayed mine with WD-40, then silicone spray over a year ago, it's been working fine ever since.

Search feature works really well on this forum.

Actually it either doesn't work well at all or I'm too stupid to figure it out. Multiple search terms are searched for using "or" not "and" no matter what I try. :mad:

Search works well enough. If I came a forum and asked a question without searching, it's probably because I didn't know the site well and didn't know about it. But if a member who has a lot of posts tells me to try the search, I wouldn't be put off by it. I would try the search, and be happy with the fact that I came up with tons of info immediately. I don't know about most people, but I'm a big boy and don't get all pissy when someone points me in the right direction, even if it is a little curt.

the search function is very poor on this site,actually that is the complaint i have ever really had for this site,

i just typed "door ajar" to search the mark viii section,
this is what i got.

other than the thread we are on right now,it is useless,

i guess i find how to fix my door ajar problem in the sts remote turbo thread.please!

Thank you :D I take that as a complement.
Read any post that Frogman has answered or made. The kid is a punk.

Oh dear lord. I've publicly stated I can be an ass, so you're not breaking any news there, Connie.

I am curious which member signed up just to impart his feelings of me upon evereryone. Take an admin a whole 15 seconds to do an IP search on his username and see what other users are registered with that IP addy.

Oh well. At least I am not afraid to tell it like I see it, and I sure as hell am not a afraid to do it under my username.

I think it may be one of the admins :rolleyes:

Oye. It does look like the boolean search functions are turned off.

Typically, if you type, say +"door ajar" , the database should only return you threads with the two words next to each other.

Jooooeeeeeyy!? :lol:

Gimme a call sometime Alex..... You had me searching for the wrong username. I've got your information.



Mike



BTW...... I'm gonna have to agree with just about everyone else. I'm all for helping someone, but i'm not going out of my way when a simple search could be performed in the 1st place.

I'm also of the mindset, that if you can't take a comment such as.....

"Do a search", W/O it hurting your E-feelings, you need to go back to kindergarden and regain the basic building blocks for self esteem. Tell ya what Frogman.... Let's do this...
