Door Jamb Switch for Quest and Villager

Standard Ignition DS-893 is a bolt-mount door jamb switch built for front door applications on select Nissan Quest and Mercury Villager models. It uses a female connector, male blade terminals, and a 3-terminal layout to support reliable door-activated electrical switching.

Key Features

• Door jamb switch for front door locations
• Bolt-mount design for secure installation
• Female connector with male blade terminals
• 3-terminal configuration
• Copper alloy conductors for strong electrical conductivity and low resistive loss
• 100% tested for mechanical and electrical switching performance
• Direct replacement style for select Mercury Villager and Nissan Quest applications

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition DS-893 is engineered for door-activated circuits that control courtesy lighting and related body electrical functions. Its robust construction and copper alloy conductors support consistent signal transfer, while full testing helps verify switching performance before installation. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Compatible With 1993-2002 Nissan Quest, front; 2002 Mercury Villager, front; 1999-2001 Mercury Villager, front with courtesy lights; and 1993-1998 Mercury Villager, front left with courtesy lights. The DS-893 is a practical replacement when the original door jamb switch no longer triggers interior lights or related door-open functions.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Courtesy lights that stay off when a door opens
• Interior lights that remain on after the door closes
• Intermittent door-open signal to body electrical circuits
• Worn or damaged door jamb switch contacts
• Faulty switching at the front door or front left door location

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation. This switch uses a bolt-mount design with blade terminals, so the existing connector and mounting point should match the vehicle application. Confirm the front or front left door position listed for your specific Quest or Villager before replacing the part.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition builds this switch with service-focused materials and validates both electrical and mechanical operation through testing. The DS-893 is designed to meet the demands of professional repair work on door jamb switch applications.
