Hi @bainbridgert ,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

It sounds like you're encountering a false alert from a sensor or a system indicating that a door is open when it actually isn't. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:

Check the Sensor: If the message is coming from a home security system, appliance, or vehicle, the first step is to inspect the sensor that detects whether the door is open. Make sure the sensor is clean and unobstructed.

Realign the Sensor: Sometimes, the sensor and its corresponding magnet (if it uses one) can become misaligned, especially in doors that have been recently moved or adjusted. Ensure that they are correctly aligned according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Reset the System: For electronic systems, a reset can help clear any glitches or temporary errors. You can do this by either turning off the system completely for a few minutes or using a dedicated reset button if available.

Check for Wiring Issues: If there are wires involved, ensure they are securely connected and not damaged. Loose connections or frayed wires can send incorrect signals.

Consult the Manual: Refer to the user manual for specific troubleshooting tips related to the system you're dealing with. The manual may have a section on common errors including false "door open" messages.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
