[AT] OT

[Cecil R Bearden]

I had an 89 Chevy 4x4 that would drain batt after sitting 4 days.  light 
in glove box would stay on because too much in box and cracked hinge.  
2003 Ford 4x4 had this problem.  The door switch is in the door latch  ( 
really dumb) I loil the latch every month and it keeps working.  A good 
penetrating oil may help on the door latch.
