Hi, I am havving a problem on my A3 that when I close the door the display
still says the drivers door is open and the interior lights stay on.
This is also a problem when I leave the car as the interior lights stay on
and run down my battery.
There is no 'push button' switch in the door shuts, all i can see is a
little white sensor looking thing on the door itself above the catch.
Is this the sensor and how do I clean/fix it?

 

From ETKA the door-close switch is part of the door lock mechanism.
