Where are the door sensors on a 2001 Ford excursion?

The 2001 Ford Excursion doesn't have door sensors in the same way a modern car might, with individual sensors for each door to trigger interior lights or alarms. Instead, it relies on door switches located within the door itself, usually in the jamb area where the door latch engages. These switches are mechanical and send a signal to the vehicle's body control module (BCM) when the door is opened or closed.

Therefore, there isn't a single, easily visible "sensor." To find the switch for a particular door, you'll need to:

1. Remove the interior door panel: This involves removing screws and possibly some plastic clips. Instructions for this are readily available online through repair manuals or automotive how-to videos specific to the 2001 Ford Excursion.

2. Inspect the door latch mechanism: Once the panel is off, you'll see the various components of the door latch. The door switch is typically a small, plastic switch attached to the latch mechanism. It may have wires connected to it.

Keep in mind that the location and exact appearance of the switch might vary slightly between doors (front vs. rear) and even between different Excursion models, so careful observation within the door is necessary.
